Well, the priest crunch has hit us! As many of you know, we have been able to secure priest help while Father Joe is away for meetings, retreats, and vacation. But now we’ve hit a brick wall in trying to obtain priests for weekday Masses. Because of some of the restrictions that are placed upon priests from other dioceses celebrating Mass (letters of suitability from the diocese where the priest is ministering and notifications to the bishops/religious superiors of both dioceses involved), many priests are choosing to help out only in the dioceses where they are living. This is part of the continuing fall-out from the clergy sexual abuse crisis to ensure the safety of our children. With this in mind, Masses will not be celebrated at Saint Kathryn’s on Monday, July 31 and Tuesday, August 1 to allow for a little vacation time for Father Joe. Masses will resume at the normal times beginning on Wednesday, August 2. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
