Lent is bringing us some changes!
After some consultation and discernment, Fr. Froehle has decided to move Tuesday Mass to 8:30am to be consistent with the rest of our daily Mass schedule.
Tuesday, February 23 will be the first Tuesday that we will celebrate Mass at 8:30am instead of 6:30pm.
The Holy Hour will be moved to Fridays at 9:00am immediately following 8:30am Mass with Benediction at 10:00am.
Friday, February 26 will be the first Holy Hour observed on Friday instead of Tuesday.
Additionally, Fr. Froehle is moving the time of Saturday afternoon confession. Confession will run from 3:00 - 4:00pm.
Saturday, February 20 will be the first Saturday that confession will begin at 3:00pm.
