Dear parishioners,
Archbishop Hebda has granted permission for Catholics in our archdiocese to receive Holy Communion one time during the Easter season (only applicable as long as public celebrations of the Mass are suspended). We would like to offer you the opportunity to receive Holy Communion this Sunday, April 19th, on the feast of Divine Mercy. The distribution of Holy Communion will take place within the churches while maintaining strict sanitary procedures. Those attending will be required to maintain a minimum six foot distance from each other at all times and only ten people will be allowed in the church at a time. No congregating will be allowed before or after receiving.
Location and time Holy Communion will be available on Sunday, April 19th:
St. Henry, St. Henry – from 9am to 10am
St. Mary, Le Center – from 10:30am to 12:30pm
Nativity, Cleveland – from 1:30pm to 2:30pm
Immaculate Conception, Marysburg – from 3pm to 4pm
For those unable to come this Sunday, there will be other opportunities in the future. However, to give everyone the chance to receive while still being safe, we must keep to the archbishop’s guidelines of receiving only one time per person during the Easter season. So if you choose to receive this Sunday, we ask that you abstain the next time Holy Communion is offered.
As always, remember that we must be living in communion with the Lord in order to receive him in Communion.
-Fr. Stiles and Fr. Sandquist
