NEWS & EVENTSA PILGRIMAGE TOTHE HOLY LANDDear Brothers & Sisters in Christ,These are certainly challenging and perplexingdays. It's hard for me to wrap my mind around thingssuch as doing all of the Holy Week liturgies by myself. Iknow not being able to come to Mass, especially onEaster, is a source of great sadness for so many. Yetwhile there is so much we don't have control over, wecan always control how we respond. Difficult timesallow us a new opportunity to rise to theoccasion. Even as I write this (on Tuesday), I'malready hearing some great things: people reaching outto help one another, teachers and students and parentsnavigating "doing school" from home, and familiesappreciating more time spent together. The Mystery ofFaith is the movement from death to resurrection inChrist. I believe God canbring a "rising" out of ourcurrent scenario. May weremember that short butsimple prayer, "Jesus, I trustin You," and let us continueto pray for one another.Pray, stay calm, and washyour hands!God bless you,Join Father Jeff McBeth for amemorable 11 Day trip to theHoly Land October 12-22, 2020.We will walk the actual placeswhere Jesus walked and taught inJerusalem, Capernaum andGalilee.

ANNOUNCEMENTSMarch 16, 2020 Message From Bishop ThomasHe always showed compassion for children and for the poor, for the sick and for sinners, and he became a neighbor to theoppressed and the afflicted. By word and deeds he announced to the world that you are our Father and that you care for all yoursons and daughters (Preface: Eucharistic Prayer for Use in Masses for Various Needs IV).In order best to safeguard the Catholic faithful and the greater community from the serious threat and spread of the Coronavirus/COVID-19, Bishop Daniel E. Thomas, in union with the Bishops of Ohio, has decreed all publicly celebrated Masses and otherliturgies in the Diocese of Toledo will be temporarily suspended. This decree is effective immediately and will remain in place atleast through the celebrations of Holy Week and Easter Sunday, April 12, 2020. All the faithful are dispensed from the obligation toattend Sunday Mass during this time in accord with the Code of Canon Law.It was only after consultation with the Governor and public health officials, that this unprecedented painful decision needed to bemade immediately in order to protect the health and well-being of our communities. With you I am heartbroken that such adecision had to be made, but trust that this sacrifice, for the greater good, will be received with charity and understanding and will,ultimately serve to unite us ever more closely with Christ, the Suffering Servant.Priests are privately to offer daily Mass on behalf of the people entrusted to their spiritual care. The General Instruction of theRoman Missal states, “Mass should not be celebrated without a minister, or at least one of the faithful, except for a just andreasonable cause” (no. 254). The current health crisis constitutes a “just and reasonable cause.”Parishes are encouraged to continue livestreaming Masses (Sunday and/or daily) if that is their current practice, and others shouldexamine the possibilities of utilizing social media to best reach the faithful at this critical time.While every priest is required to provide the option of “anonymous” or “face-to-face” confession, when celebrating the individualrite of the sacrament of penance (e.g. Days of Grace, the Light is On), penitents may be strongly encouraged to confessanonymously.Funeral and wedding liturgies, in so far as possible, should be celebrated with the presence of the fewest members of the faithful(e.g. immediate family). Please use your sound pastoral judgement and prudence when making decisions regarding these liturgies.Further guidance concerning the liturgies of Holy Week will be forthcoming. However, it is our hope that the Elect and Candidatesfor Full Communion could be initiated sometime within the Easter Season.All parishes and institutions are invited to inform their people of the various ways they can access livestreaming/broadcast ofMasses/liturgies via the internet, television or radio. This information should be broadly disseminated to the faithful using the mosteffective means possible (social media, email, signage).In these extraordinary times we are called upon to take extraordinary measures. We have never faced such a global health crisis inour lifetime. While we may have to refrain temporarily from reception of the Holy Eucharist, it is my sincere hope that such asacrifice will serve not to divide us but to unite us in our deeper love and appreciation for the Holy Eucharist as well as a deeperlove for and communion with our neighbor.I encourage you to join me in addressing this pandemic with a renewed vigor in exercising the great pillars of the Lenten Seasonthrough intensified weekly prayer (in particular the Stations of the Cross), serious weekly fasting, and weekly almsgiving for somany in need at this time, so that the Father, who sees and hears in secret, will repay us.6SUNDAY, MARCH 22, 2020 FOURTH SUNDAY OF LENT
