Effective Palm Sunday, April 10, the obligation to participate in the Eucharist in person on Sundays and other holy days of obligation is restored. Unless excused for a serious reason (illness, care of infants or elderly, etc.) those who deliberately fail in this obligation commit a grave sin.

What does the Church say about the COVID-19 vaccine? The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (Vatican) the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and the Florida Conference of Catholic Bishops (FCCB) have stated that it is morally acceptable to use the COVID-19 vaccines.

In addition to providing our parishioners with the option to view our Masses online, we are also simulcasting our weekend Masses outside at the church entrance and throughout our gardens for those who cannot find comfortable space in the church building and for those who prefer to socially distance outdoors. If you need to receive the Eucharist by tongue, please direct yourself towards the priest during Holy Communion.
