St Rose of Lima 6451 Park Ave

GOOD NEWS!  SURPRISE!  Whichever you’re most comfortable with…..We’re moving back into the Church this weekend of PENTECOST!

 Explanation:  For the past three weekends we’ve had Mass on the Festival Grounds at 4pm on Saturday and 9am on Sunday. These have been well attended and the weather has been somewhat cooperative! This past weekend it was already getting a little too warm for comfort and the breeze was not as evident.  The gnats and no-see-ums were swarming and unpleasant.  On all three weekends we had about 300 to almost 400 parishioners attending.  That’s a great turn out!  The staff and I met this morning and decided that we are ready to move back into the Church and can do so safely. As you see below we are going back to the original weekend schedule of 4pm Mass on Saturday and the 8am, 10:30am, 1pm and 4pm Masses on Sunday.  We are asking that people come expecting to abide by social distancing guidelines and to take all safety precautions – we will provide hand sanitizer. We encourage you to wear a mask.

So here’s the plan:  

Normal Mass schedule resumes May 30^th and 31st

Saturday Confessions:  1:30pm to 3:00 pm in the Church Chapel. (no drive through confessions)

Saturday at 4 pm

Sunday at 8 am, 10:30 am, 1 pm and 4 pm

During this time the Holy Eucharist will be given in the hand only.

We will continue to live stream the Saturday 4 pm Mass, as the dispensation from Bishop Wack is still in place.  Scroll to the top of the page and click the live stream link or follow us on facebook  https://www.facebook.com/pg/StRoseofLimaCatholicChurch/videos/?ref=page_internal

We want to assure you that our new A/C units recently installed in the church are equipped with an air filtering system (Reme Halo Filtration System) for your peace of mind.  https://breatheeasyair.com/how-does-the-reme-halo-work/

We ask you to please respect social distancing guidelines, and leave space between your family and other parishioners if you occupy the same pew. Remember that hand sanitizer is available for your use before entering the church. Feel free to wear your mask if you’d like to do so.

If you’re willing, please attend the Mass you normally attend in order to prevent our exceeding the allowed number of people per Mass.  There are churches that are working on a reservation basis to prevent having to turn people away, and we would like to avoid this.

As mentioned above - Confessions are now back in the Chapel on Saturdays from 1:30 pm to 3:00 pm.

There are no drive thru confessions.

 First Monday Confessions will be held in the church on Monday, June 1^st from 5:30 pm to 7 pm.

Our daily Masses are held in the Church, Monday through Friday at 8 am, and on Wednesday at 8 am and 7 pm. Adoration will not be held next week.

Our regular office hours resume on Monday, June 1^st;  Monday through Thursday from 8:00 am until 4 pm, closed from noon to 1 pm.  Open Friday from 8:00 am until Noon.
