ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT PALM SUNDAY
There will be no public celebration of Masses for Palm Sunday, but we will live stream the Vigil Mass on April 4th at 4 P.M. and the Sunday Masses on April 5th at 9 A.M. (English) 11 A.M.(Portuguese), 12:15 P.M. (Spanish).
There will be no distribution of Palms this weekend. The Palms will be blessed at weekend Mass, and then stored in a cooler until public liturgies have resumed. People will be able to take blessed palms once we are able to receive the blessed palms with Eucharist. Other smaller Parishes may have a different way of distributing blessed palms, but we have had numerous discussions and find this is the best way to cover the many people in our unique collaborative community. It is also a way of keeping our staff safe by not asking them to distribute palms to the public.
Many Parishes are also encouraging people to place a green branch on their front door during Holy Week. A candle in your window as a sign of our waiting for the Easter celebration and is appropriate.
This is a very different way of gathering during Holy Week. Please stay healthy and pray for each other. Further details about Holy Week and Easter will be coming soon.
