Religious Formation returns “in person” beginning the Sunday after Labor Day, September 12^th - “Family Ministry” style! These families will be at the 9:00 am Sunday Mass and then have a 30 minute catechetical teaching in age groups for the children and special programs at the same time for the parents.  As you know, vaccinations are not yet available for those younger than 12.  All those from 2 to 12 (and all adults not as yet vaccinated) will be wearing masks at all times while in the building. As a sign of our solidarity and concern for these “masked” children, I am asking all those coming to the 9:00 am Sunday Mass to wear your mask coming into and leaving the building/Mass.  (Vaccinated adults could continue to wear their masks or take them off once seated for Mass.)   Let us welcome & care for our youngest members for “it is to such as these that the Kingdom of God belongs.”
Thank you for your consideration in these challenging times. -  Fr. Tarantino
