Dear parishioners of All Saints,
Due to the inclement weather that is predicted for Friday and Saturday, the 4:00 PM Saturday Mass is canceled. I have consulted with Father Jack (who helps us out with our Masses) and it is best that that he not travel on ice and snow. {As an aside, securing priests for Mass assistance is getting more and more difficult.}
I will celebrate the 5:00 PM Mass at St. Francis Xavier Church come ice, snow or whatever, and all of you are most welcomed (as always) to come. Pending the weather, I hope the parking lots (at both churches) will be cleared but I cannot guarantee it.
I rarely pre-determine and make a decision like this one but, preparing Mass involves a lot of people who need to know as soon as possible, and they can plan accordingly.
I think of the scripture that says, "ice and snow, bless the Lord..." but I like to think in those terms in the summer, not winter. Travel safely and smartly.
Peace,
Father Dale
