Letter to Parishioners on Reopening

Dear Padre Serra Parishioners,
I have both deeply saddening news about the coronavirus, and challenging and hopeful news about our parish reopening...

Virtual Gatherings

We are resuming some ministry activities via video conference.

About Mass

We will have online Mass on Sunday at 10:00 am. Because the current law prohibits gatherings, at the archbishop's direction, the church building will remain locked during the liturgy. You can also watch them through YouTube. Please subscribe.

Reconciliation

The archbishop has suspended all confessions except for people in extreme danger. Fr. Patrick cannot hear your confession over the phone or computer; priest and penitent must be physically present to each other. The archbishop told us specifically not to do drive by confessions.
In the absence of the opportunity to go to the sacrament, please do as Pope Francis has instructed:
  • make your confession directly to God,
  • trust in God’s mercy,
  • and make use of the first opportunity you have when the crisis passes, to make a sacramental confession with a priest.​
