      Jenny,
      Hope you and the family are well! We are happy that we can provide Mass, although it will be great when we can all be together again!

        We are doing well Father, working on potty training Logan lol! We’re going on a prayer road trip later with the kids to the parking lots of all the places that we frequent. Mikayla’s school, the YMCA’S & of course St. Joseph’s. We’re gonna sing & pray for everyone that will enter those places again, that we will all be even more unified after all this. We keep you & your mom in our prayers & look forward to seeing you in person again…and having you over for chilli!

      Thanks Rich! We will continue to provide recorded Masses, including during Holy week, and we are going to live-stream Mass for our Easter Vigil and Easter Sunday Masses. Thanks for watching and please know you are in our prayers.

    Thank you for doing this. It is very comforting. I still miss communion. For a little levity, my dog is having trouble understanding why suddenly I break out into song while watching.🎶❤️
