Attention! As we return to our Sunday Mass together, there are some changes to consider:
  • You should not come to Church if you currently are experiencing a fever or flu-like symptoms.
  • The Sunday Mass obligation remains dispensed until further notice. If you do not feel safe coming to Church, please stay home.
  • Social distancing will be required inside this Church building.
  • Hand sanitizer is available at every entrance and should be used upon entering and exiting the building.
  • During Mass there will NOT be a collection taken, please place your contributions in the baskets in the back of Church.
  • There will be a cart in the back of the Church with the missalettes, please pick one up for Mass and return it to the cart after Mass.
  • Communion will be done one side of the Church at a time, in a single file line so that you can remain social distancing.
  • After Mass the pews, bathroom, door handles, and railings will be sanitized. Volunteers to help the ushers will be needed. Please consider helping with this task.

Great News!!!
Our Bishop Callahan has issued a letter to the priests of the Diocese of La Crosse concerning lifting the ban on the Sunday obligation to attend Mass.
The five Bishops from the State of Wisconsin have decided now is the time to return to the 'source and summit' of our faith, the Mass. Many people are eager to return to the Mass and the time seems right since we have been partially open for some time now. We will continue to practice social distancing and the additional sanitizing will also continue.
Beginning the weekend of October 3rd and 4th 2020 the dispensation to attend in person, the Sunday Mass will be lifted. Each Diocese has a different date to begin the in person Sunday obligation based on the advice from the health agencies in their areas.
We are excited for this development and are anticipating many blessings to come from our faithful return to the Mass. Pray for the transition to the smooth and trouble free. If you have any questions , contact the parish office. Watch for more details through the month of September in our parish bulletin. God Bless You!
