First Friday & First Saturday fall this week on May 1 and May 2, respectively.
Beginning in June on Saturday, June 6, on First Saturday we will offer a 9:00 am Mass in addition to our normal Noon Mass. The 9:00 am Mass will be shorter and simpler to accommodate those for whom this time slot is better. I will begin hearing Confessions at 8:30 am (when doors open) and can hear them afterwards. Another priest can come at 10:15 am to hear Confessions.
There will be no Evening of Reparation in May. Also, starting in June, the Evening of Reparation will begin one hour earlier with doors opening at 5:30 pm (with Exposition & Confession), a 6:00 pm Holy Hour and the Mass of Reparation to follow (around 7:05 pm). That way, we will conclude around 8:00 pm.
Our May Crowning will be on Saturday, May 9. It will actually be a Double May Crowning, as we will crown both the statue of Our Lady of the Cape and the statue of the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary.
