COVID-19 UPDATE - 4/7/2020 @ 6:30 pm

Dear Friends --- 4/7/2020 at 6:30 pm

1. We have received direction from Archbishop Carlson today that the SUSPENSION OF PUBLIC WORSHIP in the Archdiocese of St. Louis is EXTENDED through APRIL 30.
2. A Reminder here that we have RESCHEDULED FIRST HOLY COMMUNION to Saturday, June 13, at 10:00 am, the eve of the Feast of Corpus Christi (the Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ)
3. The Archbishop today has suspended all scheduled celebrations of the SACRAMENT of CONFIRMATION through June 1st. Pastors of affected parishes -- ours included -- are being granted the faculty to confer the Sacrament this year only when it is opportune for the celebration to be rescheduled. I will confer with our DRE, our Principal and our Pastoral Staff and determine when our celebration of Confirmation (originally scheduled for April 28) will be rescheduled. We will give you ample notice for family schedule planning.

Please continue to pray: Our Lady of Perpetual Help, pray for us! Sts. Joachim & Ann, pray for us!

Fr. Brockland
