Dear Parishioners, �
�
This is already the third Sunday in
which we have not celebrated the Eucharist
with the people of God. I know how difficult
this is for many of you, but Fr. Basso and I
ask that you continue to have faith and hope
that this moment will pass, for it will pass.
This Lent is truly a time of desert for many
of you, but rest assured of our presence and
prayers for all of you. Fr. Basso and I together with some volun-
teers are reaching out to all of you via phone (albeit finding out
that our record keeping is not the best and many phone numbers
are not up to date), to let you know that we are praying for you,
that we are available for confessions and the sacraments for the
sick. We are celebrating private funerals and private weddings.�
�
Here are some of the initiatives that we would like to offer
to you. Starting this coming Sunday, the fifth Sunday of Lent, we
will offer the Mass livestreamed, and not just recorded. Starting
on Monday the 30
th
we will livestream Mass every morning at the
usual time of 7:30 am, followed by exposition of the Blessed sac-
rament and rosary. Please, understand that this is all new for us,
and not being a high�tech Parish, we are amateurs doing this with
the help of some parishioners. It is also my intention to live
stream the Via Crucis (Way of the Cross) on Friday the 3
rd
of
April at 7 pm.�
�
We will livestream all the Easter Triduum celebrations at the
following times:�
�
Holy Thursday: Mass at 7:00 pm � April 9, 2020�
Good Friday: Mass at 3:00 pm � April 10, 2020�
Holy Saturday: Confessions from 4:30 pm to 7:00 pm re-
specting the directives that only 10 people will be in the
church at once and remain 6 ft apart.�
Easter Vigil: Mass at 9:00 pm � April 11, 2020�
Easter Sunday: Mass at 10:00 am � April 12, 2020�
�
Follow us using our webpage, we have everything up to
date: www.stlouiscatholicparish.org Enroll in Flocknote and you
will receive all the links to the Mass and other updated infor-
mation.�
�
Finally, remember that we are still having confessions on
Saturday as usual at 3:30 pm; we only ask you to sit in the church
6ft apart and that we are not allowed to have more than 10 people
at a time inside the church. We are available for confessions by
appointment at any time.�
�
Courage and hope are two wonderful virtues, like the Arch-
angel Gabriel told the virgin Mary on March 25, the Solemnity of
the Annunciation, “Mary do not be afraid, for the life that is in
you is of God”. Let us cherish in this time the divine life that God
has given us so that in times of fear and distress we may hear the
voice of God telling us, “do not be afraid, I am with you”, which
is the most important thing for a Christian, the certainty of the
love of God for each one of us.�
