It is Saint Mary Magdalen’s Mission to follow the Gospel

Mandate of Jesus Christ.

Eucharistic Celebrations

Sacrament of Marriage

Allow sufficient time for adequate arrangements. Contact the Parish

Priest at least six months before the wedding date that you desire.

Sacrament of Baptism

The Sacrament of Baptism is offered after weekend Masses. Call the Parish

Office to schedule your baptism and get information on attending the Baptismal

Class offered here at the Parish.

Communion and Anointing for the Sick

Please contact the Parish Office to schedule a time.

Eucharistic Adoration

The Saint Joseph Chapel is available for Eucharistic

Adoration all day everyday. Spend time with Jesus!

jxÄvÉÅx àÉ ÉâÜ i|á|àÉÜá‹ If your are new to the area, we look forward to meeting you personally. We pray that through our worship, you may experience the depth of God’s love for us. To become a member, please e-mail the rectory office at

[email protected] or fill out the form below and drop it in the collection basket. We hope that you find a home here!

If you have not been active in the practice of the Catholic Faith, we encourage you to return. If you would like to speak with someone on the parish staff, please do not hesitate to contact them.

If a previous marriage has kept you from receiving the Sacraments, we invite you to contact one of the priests. In many cases, we can work with you toward a favorable solution so you can again receive the Sacraments in

the Catholic Church.

From our Pastor Dear Folks:

Items for this week:

Family Faith Formation: Last week I announced a tuition break for the school families; this week I am announcing a tuition break for next year’s Family Faith Formation. We will be offering a 5% discount on tuition for next year’s returning families.

Parish Finances: Brothers and sisters, the Fish Fry normally brings in $70.000. This year, it brought in $25,000.00 as the Coronavirus Pandemic halted all parish activities. And, the parish picnic, which normally brings in $12,000.00, was halted. Right now, the parish is in a deficit. The parish, with the Archbishop’s approval, did apply for a small business loan/grant from the govt. We were so blessed to receive a loan/grant. The govt. grant/loan is only being used for salaries. The next financial board meeting is the second Tuesday in May and after that meeting, more detailed in-formation will be given to the parish about where things stand financially. I want to thank every-one for their prayers and financial generosity at this time. This whole time is very strange and weird. We will get through this. Again, thanks for your generosity.

Coronavirus Updates: I just want to continue to let everyone know that the Saint Joseph Perpet-ual Adoration Chapel is being sanitized every 2 weeks to mitigate any virus and/or bacteria floating around. It was sanitized again this past Wednesday. I am waiting until we get word on reconvening in Church before sanitizing that area and the school area. And, speaking of reconvening in Church, let us pray for some good news soon!!! We all need to get back together worshiping in communion and community within the walls of the Church. Let us pray for the Archbishop as he as to make this call/decision.

**Convent: Just a reminder that the time for the convent to be torn down is coming soon. Again, this tear down is coming from funds restricted for the green space—park—effort.

Have a good week and stay healthy!

Fr. Jack

Online Giving -Switching to Online Giving-

Understanding that every business, non-profit, and household is undergoing financial strain right now due to the Coronavirus, we know that there are some who may not be able to contribute at this time; please con-

tinue your prayers for an end to this pandemic and, thank you for those much-needed prayers!

If you can contribute financially to the parish, please consider, “Online Giving,” as a viable option. In these unprecedented times, financial support is still needed for the Church. Some prefer mailing in their dona-tions to the Church and that is great. But, “Online Giving,” is also a viable option that many find fruitful.

This page gives details for giving online through the, “WeShare,” program.

You can use your debit or credit card or checking or savings account:

Parish Happenings and Events

During this time of separation from the Eucharist,

we can pray this prayer...

Current CARE Outreach: During these unprecedented times, CARE has been working with Father Jack and wonderful Saint Mary Magdalen volunteers outreaching to our elderly and parishioners in need offering support for picking up groceries and medications. This outreach has been an AMAZING

and enriching experience for all thus far! We are finding out how well our Saint Mary Magdalen parishioners are already being cared for by neighbors, friends and family.

Our parishioners in need are very receptive and thankful for the outreach and many expressed care and concern for others. It is so wonderful to see our parish come together through this effort.

If you are in need of support with picking up groceries or medication or if you would like to volunteer with this effort, please reach out to Nancy Gleason on the CARE line at 962-1354.
