Reminder: Dispensation from the obligation to at-tend Mass is still in effect. The elderly and those with underlying health issues are advisted/encouraged to stay home and continue to Mass on our website, Facebook Page or on CatholicTV.

90-Days Now – Phase 2 for our parishes is an online supplemental offertory giving program started by the laity to help support parishes during the pandemic. ο Phase 1 raised $450,000 for 236 parishes. ο Phase 2 offers a match gift from a generous

anonymous benefactor when the overall campaign reaches $700,000.

Should you choose to join in this effort, or give again to help reach the match, the Archdiocese has created an easy-to-use link to donate at www.BostonCatholic.org/donate. ALL FUNDS GO DIRECTLY TO OUR PARISH. Thank you for your continued support.

Our Plan For Mission

How we bring people to Jesus, form disciples and transform the world!

Rooted in Worship through the liturgy, prayer and sacraments, we believe that transformation is possible for each person! We do this through creating a culture of Welcome and by providing opportunities to Encounter Jesus Christ; to Connect with others on the journey, to Grow in faith and discipleship; to Empower all to know and use their God-given gifts to share in fulfilling the mission; and to Serve oth-ers through outreach.
