Mass schedule
As we mentioned last week, beginning in Lent we will resume our regular weekend mass schedule. So, on Saturday, February 20th, Mass will be at 5:00 PM. Sunday, February 21st, Masses will be at 8:30 and 10:30 AM. We will continue to follow the same requirements of wearing a mask and practicing social distancing. We will also continue to live-stream the Saturday evening mass.
We have noticed an increase in the number of people coming to mass and want to encourage people coming to mass. We will continue to live-stream mass for those who don’t feel safe coming to mass yet or are unable to come to mass.
Retirement
I have written Bishop Johnston requesting to retire as pastor this year. He recently responded and granted my request. My retirement will take effect when the diocese makes priest assignments which will be either late June or early July. I am looking for a home in the Lee’s Summit area. I am planning to assist parishes with masses when the need is there. I will let you know more as time goes by.
You can find this week's prayers of the faithful here.
