The Mass of Christian burial will be Monday, July 27 at 10 AM at St. Helen’s in Georgetown. You can watch that by going to St. Helen’s website.

Nefarious emails: Scammers are sending emails that appear to be from Father Larry or Bishop Joe Vásquez requesting gift cards or other monetary items. These messages are a form of phishing called “CEO Fraud.” They are fraudulent and should be ignored. Please know that Bishop Vásquez, our priests and our diocese, will never solicit gift cards through emails or texts.

Homebound Communion will continue to be suspended until further notice for the safety of all parishioners.

Our normally scheduled weekday masses begin May 5th; however, we will not have the Wellspring mass until further notice.   Starting May 10th, to try to comply with protocols we will only have two limited Sunday liturgies for now, at 8 and 10:30 am. Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon liturgies will follow when possible. For the full guidelines we will be following please see the Alerts section of the website.
