Dear Parishioners,
In order to assist you in your First Friday/Saturday devotions, I have developed the following plan. This coming (First) Friday and Saturday I will be available in the confessional at 8:00 a.m. Only one person at a time will be allowed in the church. My assistant will monitor those going to the confessional. At 9:00 a.m. the church will be opened for a brief Communion service. People should leave within 10 minutes of receiving Communion. As to First Saturday, anyone unable to fulfill the devotion on Saturday may do so on Sunday this month by decree of this unworthy priest. In the words of Sister Lucy (speaking the words given to her), "The practice of this devotion will be equally acceptable on the Sunday following the First Saturday when My Priests, for a just cause, allow it to souls." Finally, there will obviously be no Eucharistic adoration this month. That will continue in January.
Mass will be live-streamed on Sunday (tomorrow) at 10:00 a.m. I ask that the church be empty at 9:15 a.m. (Individuals praying in the chapel on Thanksgiving Day contributed to the delay in Mass starting on time.)
Please do not forget the financial needs of the church at this time. Again, checks should be made to OLHC (not to me), and sent to my PO box. If you have envelopes, please use them. (FYI, these will remain sealed until they are processed.)
The following are protocols for families with coughing children: Mothers have the most difficult task of any of us in understanding how their childrens' symptoms should be interpreted. The following criteria should be adequate to answer the question. Children with chronic coughs of more than 10 days and who are fever-free may attend church. Children with coughs lasting less than 10 days or who have a fever should not attend church, nor should their parents. However, children who have tested negative for Coronavirus within 72 hours and who otherwise have mild symptoms may attend Mass along with their families.
I believe that Fr. Wiest is recovering slowly but surely. Contrary to rumor, he is still in the hospital. It appears to me that this is going to be a slow recovery. He has had a very lonely stay in the hospital, and has suffered greatly. Please keep him in your prayers.
In our Lord,
Fr. Starbuck
P.S.

It is with great sadness that I have to inform you of the loss of our good pastor, Fr. Patrick Perez. He died in the hospital early this morning. It is hard to find words in the midst of this incredible loss. We are grateful for his many years of leadership and service to our church. He fought the good fight. May he now rest in peace.
Please Continue to Pray for the Soul and Repose of Msgr. Patrick Perez.
Prayer for Fr. Wiest's speedy recovery.
O Jesus, eternal Priest, keep your priests within the shelter of Your Sacred Heart, where none may touch them.
Keep unstained their anointed hands,
which daily touch Your Sacred Body.
Keep unsullied their lips,
daily purpled with your Precious Blood.
Keep pure and unearthly their hearts, sealed with the sublime mark of the priesthood.
Let Your holy love surround them and
shield them from the world’s contagion.
Bless their labors with abundant fruit and
may the souls to whom they minister be their joy and consolation here and in heaven their beautiful and everlasting crown.
-St. Therese of Lisieux

This blessing of the home and inscription of the initials of the three Magi above each door can be performed either by a priest or the father of the family. The feast of manifestation, or Epiphany, is traditionally celebrated the 12th day after Christmas. On entering the home: Priest, if present, or father of the […]
Pray this first section every week followed by the prayers of the week: Father: Our help is in the Name of the Lord. Everyone: Who hath made heaven and earth. Father: Let us pray, Oh God, by whose word all things are sanctified, pour forth Thy blessings on this wreath, and grant that we who […]

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. First, a few comments. I know most of us are in despair after the elections, and it’s sobering to realize we live in a nation of fools. We live in a nation of fools. It’s fools who elected this […]
INTROIT Dicit Dóminus: Ego cógito cogitatiónes pacis, et non afflictiónis: invocábitis me, et ego exáudiam vos: et redúcam captivitátem vestram de cunctis locis. Ps. lxxxiv. 2. Benedixísti, Dómine, terram tuam: avertísti captivitátem Jacob. v. Glória Patri. The Lord saith: I think thoughts of peace, and not of affliction: you shall call upon Me, and […]
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. (Father recited the Hail Mary — Our Lady, Seat of Wisdom, Pray for us.) A few things today — it’s ironic that the Benedictines are here today. I was just reading Dom Guéranger and the Liturgical Year concerning the […]

He took her by the hand, and the maid arose The Time after Pentecost is the symbol of the Church’s long pilgrimage towards heaven, the last stages of which are described in prophetic language on these closing Sunday’s of the season. Quite naturally, the breviary lessons during November are taken from the major and minor […]
The feast of All Saints is intimately connected with the remembrance of the holy souls who, detained in purgatory to expiate their venial sins or to pay the temporal pains due to sin, are none the less confirmed in grace and will one day enter heaven. Therefore, after having joyfully celebrated the glory of the […]
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. Dear Faithful, Old Testament prophesies are being fulfilled ever since Jesus became one of us. God reigns, rules among His people. “Emmanuel“, the Old Testament said, “God, with us.” And to honor Our Lord who is with us in […]
The Church Triumphant, Militant, Suffering The temple of Agrippa was dedicated, under Augustus, to all the pagan gods, hence its name of Pantheon. Under the Emperor Phocas, between A.D. 607 and 610, Boniface IV translated hither numerous remains of martyrs taken from the Catacombs. On May 13, A.D. 610, he dedicated this new Christian basilica […]
