A Warm Welcome To All Who Enter Here
A Father is neither an anchor to hold us back, nor a sail to take us there,
After consulting with parishioners in all the parishes in our cluster via survey of Saturday evening mass attendees, the consensus that the most preferred time for the Saturday mass to be 4:30pm at St Joseph’s. I thank all who were part of the discussion. A full list of the mass times beginning the weekend of July 2nd/3rd is as follows:
Saturday 3:30pm Confession St. Joseph 4:30pm Mass St. Joseph Sunday 8:00am Confession St. Augustine 8:30am Mass St. Augustine 10:15am Mass St. Joseph 10:00am Confession St. James 10:30am Mass St. James 12:15pm Mass St. Joseph 1:15pm Spanish Confession St. Joseph 1:45pm Spanish Mass St. Joseph
Please spread the word about our new mass schedule. The weekday mass schedule remains unchanged.
As part of our ongoing effort to reduce cost, we will combine the bulletins for all 3 parishes beginning in July. In the Lord,
