We are thankful to continue to offer public celebrations of the Mass and the Sacraments. Since there are still restrictions in place set forth by Governor Baker, Bishop McManus has continued the dispensation from the obligation to attend Mass until the first Sunday of Lent, February 21, 2021. We welcome those who feel that they can comply with the restrictions set forth by the Commonwealth - and who are not in a high-risk group.
IMPORTANT GUIDELINES: We cannot exceed 40% of our official seating capacity at any mass. In order to comply, only ONE DOOR will be used to enter the church. Please wear a face mask as you enter, maintaining a 6 foot distance from those ahead of you. To see a complete list of the guidelines CLICK HERE and watch the video below.
