Mass Information

As of May 28, 2021, there are no longer any social distancing rules indoors. So, there are no more sign-ups for Mass! However, at St. Mary’s, we are still wearing masks at weekend Masses through the end of June, so we can keep our unvaccinated children safe and so that we can sing. For the foreseeable future, we will have weekend Masses on Saturday at 5:00 PM and Sunday at 9:00 and

11:00 AM. Saturday Mass will continued to be livestreamed and can be viewed HERE.

Weekend Masses

There are no longer seating restrictions at Mass. However, through June 30, wearing masks is still required at weekend Masses, funerals, and weddings. When weather permits, you may sit outside and listen to Mass at 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM and Communion will be brought to you. Masks are not required outside.

Church Collection

In compliance with the directives of the archdiocese, we will not be passing baskets during Masses until after June 30, 2021. In the meantime, please continue online giving or giving by check through the mail. You may want to consider this way of support even after you come back to Mass in person! Or, for right now at church, look in the Gathering Space for a collection box or basket.
