May 12th, Message from Fr. Carlo

 
Dear St. Joseph Parishioners,            

           We are still in the Easter season. Again, I would like to extend my Easter greetings to all of you.

           I have been receiving several messages from parishioners who are longing for the Eucharist. I share in your pain and sorrow as I am eager and cannot wait to celebrate public mass with you. Although some retail stores are already open, there are still some restrictions that we need to follow. A public gathering is not yet allowed. As of this time, we cannot open the church for public mass. However, the church is open from 9 am - 4 pm, Monday- Saturday, and Sunday 8 am- 9 am and 11-2 pm for your private prayer. Please note, we only allow ten people or less at a time inside the church.

           We update our website every time we have new information from our diocese. We are still waiting for the new directive from our bishop on how we could move forward to celebrate the public masses. We will immediately notify you all once we receive new instruction. Please review the latest message of our Bishop Jaime Soto. Click here.

           Rest assured of my continued prayers for you. Please continue to join us as we Livestream our mass every Sunday via Facebook live and through our website's main page.

Thank you for your patience and kind understanding.

Please be safe and healthy.

Fr. Carlo
