Encouraging the Culture of Encounter with Jesus Christ, His Church, and All People Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Covid Safety Reminder At the time of this writing the governor has put into place some restrictions in order to curb the number of Covid cases in the state. This does not affect churches in any legal sense, and I have not heard of any change in diocesan policy or guidelines. So as of right now, our approach remains the same at St. Paul’s. But here are some reminders: if one is sick or particularly vulnerable or worried about being around others, then please remain at home. It is not possible for us to turn the church into a nursing home or hospital with their level of sanitization.

Happy 66th Wedding Anniversary to Tony and Jane DiDonato! Fr. Pfeiffer joined them at their home to give them a special blessing to celebrate the wonderful graces God has bestowed upon them for 66 years. What a great example they give to us of the faithfulness in the sacrament of Holy Matrimony.

Erich and Patricia Bettle celebrated 50 years of marriage! They received a special blessing at Mass for this occasion. In our culture, the importance of marriage is not only downplayed but often attacked. May we thank God as this couple continues to be a blessing for us all.
