“No one has greater love than this,
to lay down one’s life for one’s friends”

CHANGE IN ACCESS TO THE CHURCH - We are transitioning from using the Sanctuary to our temporary church area in the large hall. Please enter via the lower S. Alder St. entrance and follow the signs.

INVITATION TO PRIVATE PRAYER - The Sanctuary or temporary church area in the large hall will be open on Wednesdays for private prayer. Please enter by way of the lower door and follow the appropriate signs.

It is very important that we maintain a limit of 10 people in Adoration at a time if we wish to continue visiting Jesus on Wednesdays. If you do not have a scheduled time please be aware of those who may be waiting and perhaps self impose a time limit to allow others the opportunity to also visit with Him. This time with Jesus is precious and He knows we need Him now more than ever.

Please maintain the Covid protocols.

Let Jesus know you love Him.

The construction of the St. Patrick’s Church extension and renovation has begun. To keep the parishioners of the parish informed of the progress of the task, an ongoing series of photos indicating various phases of the effort will be uploaded and may be accessed by clicking.

There is an important request that we respect construction site etiquette and not enter the construction area which is fenced off. This is for our safety.

Please use the lower entry into the church.

• Creating access from the church hall to what will be the addition is in progress.
• Just a quick note: Columbarium purchases are increasing. :)
• Watch your step, heads up, and say a little prayer.

Every four weeks, after an online Mass, Donna Montgomery will be presenting a more comprehensive message about what has happened and what to expect.
