The Archdiocese of Dubuque is permitting public Masses to begin May 30-31, the Feast of Pentecost. Fr. Phil, along with the liturgical staff, has determined that it is best to ease back into public Mass. After this long period of forced slumber or sleep from public Mass, we need time to establish and understand proper procedures and to gather and train ministers to serve you safely. We want to get you accustomed to a few changes, before we return to our full schedule of Masses. The celebration of the liturgy will look and feel differently. Please know that these changes are because we take your physical health and spiritual well-being very seriously.

• Consider yourself to be sick, or if you have an underlying medical condition
• Are frail due to advanced age
• Are concerned about contracting COVID-19
• Live with and/or care for someone sick, elderly, at risk, or with COVID-19
• Work at or regularly visit hospitals and/or care facilities

We will continue to record Sunday Mass for our parishioners to pray with at home.

Worship aids for the recorded Mass at home are on our parish communications web page at:
