My Dear Parishioners,
Greetings from Father Antony! I was very happy to see some of you who attended the Mass last weekend after such a long time. According to me, about three hundred people attended the four ACTUAL MASSES we had. We will continue this way until such time we are able to go back inside. Thank you Knights for helping to set up. You did an amazing job as usual!
I can understand if some of you are still hesitant to come. This is what I would say – Please come only when you feel comfortable. However, I would like to assure you that we are taking every safety measure to protect everyone who comes for the Mass. We will continue with the Live-Streaming which will make it possible for you to follow the Mass from your cars and so that those who are unable to come to church can attend Mass from their homes.
As I mentioned last Sunday, God loves us and He will take care of us. Leave all your fears and worries to HIM. Remember, the REAL MASS can never be replaced by virtual Mass. Therefore, please make sure you do not become too comfortable attending the Mass online. If you are well, healthy and comfortable, please come and attend Sunday Mass of your choice. As you know we have:
Saturday Evening Mass at 5.00 P.M.
Sunday Morning Masses at 07:00AM, 08:30AM & 10:00AM. No noon Mass for now.
PLEASE BRING YOUR PICNIC CHAIRS FOR SITTING. CHAIRS WILL NOT BE PROVIDED FOR THE REASONS YOU CAN EASILY GUESS.
MAKE SURE YOU WEAR MASKS, EVEN WHEN YOU RECEIVE HOLY COMMUNION.
AND OF COURSE, KEEP SOCIAL DISTANCING.
May God Bless You! Fr.Antony Vazhappilly St.James Parish
