We enter the Lenten journey with the intention to draw closer to
God by means of prayer, generosity, and fasting. Talk to God and
share what is on your mind, read the daily scripture, practice the
prayer of meditation. Find ways to be generous with time or
treasure: write a card, heal a broken relationship, bake bread to
share, donate to a group that cares for the underserved. And
admit that some fasting—whether from gaming, social media, or
worrying—could improve your connection to God. This Lent is an
opportunity, not a burden. Embrace it with hope. Live it with love.

       INFORMACIÓN PARA ATENDER A MISA
La dispensa de la obligación de asistir a la misa dominical se ha extendido indefinidamente hasta nuevo
aviso del obispo para aquellos que estén enfermos o no se sientan cómodos regresando a las reuniones
públicas. Continuaremos publicando nuestras misas en línea en nuestro sitio en la internet.

  •   La asistencia a todas las misas se limitará al 50% de la capacidad con distanciamiento social.
  •   Las puertas se abren 45 minutos antes de la misa.
  •   Se requieren mascarillas / tapa bocas dentro de los edificios de la parroquia.
  •   La Sagrada Comunión se distribuirá solo en la mano, por favor no remueva su mascara
      hasta que se haya alejado de la personas que distribuye la comunión.

La capilla estará abierta después de las misas diarias de lunes a viernes hasta las 3pm oración privada,
silenciosa. Por favor, continúe lavándose las manos al entrar y use su mascarilla.
Las confesiones se escuchan los sábados por la mañana de 9 a 10:30 am en el Nuevo Auditorio.

Pueden llamar a la Oficina Parroquial al 239-992-0901 para hacer una cita para evitar tener que esperar.
