A Reminder of the Guidelines and Restrictions in Place as We Celebrate In-Person Mass:

For the time being, parishioners are welcome to join us for Sunday Masses at 5:00pm on Saturday

evening; and, on Sunday morning at 7:30am and 10:30am. We will also continue to Live Stream Sunday Mass at 12 Noon. Please note that there is not a 9:00am Mass on Sunday morning, nor a 12 Noon Mass on Sunday, for the time being. This will allow sufficient time for our maintenance staff to sanitize the Church between Masses. Please realize this is not a permanent change in our Sunday Mass schedule! We will eventually return to our traditional Sunday Mass schedule in time.

Our weekday Masses have resumed: Monday through Friday at 7:00am and 8:30am; Saturdays at 8:30am.

Archbishop Perez has extended the dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass until further notice. What this means is, if you are uncomfortable with gathering in a crowd at this time, you are dispensed from the obligation to attend Mass.

If you have been exposed to the COVID 19 virus, or have other flu-like symptoms, please do not plan to join us in Church for Mass for two weeks after you have been exposed, or two weeks after your last flu-like symptom has dissipated.

Those who are advanced in age, or who have compromised immune systems, are encouraged to seriously consider remaining home for the coming weeks.

The doors to the Church will be propped open. Only the doors in the lobby of Church will be available for entering and exiting the Church. However, parishioners will have access to the Marian Center bathrooms.

All who join us for Mass in Church are to wear a face mask for the duration of your time in Church. Persons not wearing face masks will be asked not to enter the Church.

Please do not wear disposable gloves in Church. The wearing of disposable gloves actually fosters the spread of germs.

Seating in church will be available only in designated pews; these pews will be easily identifiable; please, do not sit in a pew that is designated as a barrier zone.

We ask that there be a maximum of two individuals, or one family, in a side pew; and a maximum of four individuals, or one family, in a center pew.

If we meet the maximum number of congregants, we will inform people that the Church is full to capacity for that Mass.

The collection baskets will not be used for our offertory collection. Instead, parishioners are asked to place their offering in the specially marked basket as you enter or exit the Church.

The Sign of Peace will not be offered.

Our Communion Procession will be a single line in the center aisle.

As you are nearing the Minster of Holy Communion, please remove your mask, so as to be able to consume the Sacred Host immediately. You should replace your mask as soon as possible after consuming the Host.

The communicant is strongly encouraged to receive Holy Communion in the hand. For those who wish to receive Holy Communion on the tongue, we ask that you approach only the Communion station farthest to the left of the sanctuary; near the Blessed Mother altar.

The Precious Blood will not be offered during Communion.

When exiting the Church after Mass, please be conscious to respect the social distance between yourself and those who are leaving Mass at the same time.

For the safety of all concerned, please do not gather or socialize after Mass in the lobby or on the walkway

to the Church.

Parish Bulletins will be available in the lobby of Church; however, they will not be handed out by our ushers.

As we all work to come together for Mass, we ask that you please be patient; over the next several weeks, we may need to adjust some of our regulations to ensure the safety of all who join us for Mass.

The Catechism of the Church: Inspiring Words about Prayer

The Catechism of the Church, published in 1994, has an

excellent section on prayer. It is accessible to any person

who would like to deepen their friendship with God. The

parts I recommend most are “What is Prayer?” #2558 to

#2597; “Contemplative Prayer” #2697, #2709 to #2724;

and “The Battle of Prayer” #2725 to #2745.

Here are a few samples of what you will find:

The Battle of Prayer (2 of 3)

One does not undertake (contemplative) prayer only

when one has the time. One makes time for the Lord

with the firm determination not to give up, no matter

what trials and dryness one may encounter.

(CCC #2710)

Prayer is both a gift of grace and a determined response

on our part. It always presupposes effort… prayer is a

battle. Against whom? Against ourselves and the wiles of

the tempter who does all he can to turn man away from

prayer, away from union with God.

(CCC #2725)

Tireless fervor (in prayer) can come only from love.

Against our dullness and laziness, the battle of prayer is

that of a humble, trusting, persevering love..

(CCC #2742)

We must have a humble heart when it comes to prayer: “Apart from me you can do nothing”.

(CCC #2732)

7 Ways Parents Can Avoid Summer Burnout

If your family is anything like my family, then you have mixed feelings about the fallout from being locked down for months.

While restrictions have eased in many places across the country, we really enjoyed certain aspects of being together,

including the increased family prayer time and having more free time to spend together. On the other hand, we also are tired

of not seeing our friends, worrying about the unknown future, having to wear masks, being separated from our parish

community (though Mass has resumed, other parish events have not), and a bit worn out because we haven’t had much

of a break from each other’s company.

Then there is the fact that summer is here. What are we supposed to do about being locked up together this summer?

My teenagers normally go to a weeklong summer camp, visit friends and play sports, and we may go on a vacation. Most of

these things will be canceled. Many folks may not even have access to the pool they frequent. We have already had many

disappointments, and the unknowns that lie in our future are without number. It is enough to drive even the best of families

crazy. So, what can we do to avoid family burnout? I have seven suggestions.

1. Pray more

As with any other part of life, it starts with the interior life. God wants to use this time of social distancing to make us better. If we

have more time together as a family, perhaps God is asking us to use more of it with him in prayer. While we are distant from

some others we love, we are called to draw even closer to the one who loves us best. I am certain of this: If we were to come out

on the other end of this coronavirus pandemic as holier people, it would please God. So let’s make it happen. Let’s choose to

pray even more.

2. Start a project

Begin a long-term project that you can do together with all or part of your family. In the past few months we have overhauled our

backyard, planted a vegetable garden, built furniture, put together picture albums, fixed things that have been broken for ages,

and more. Between my wife and oldest daughter, we could have opened a bakery. Two other daughters have started taking so

many creative photos that they may have begun a budding hobby. Allowing time for projects can not just pass the time, but give

meaning to it. This is especially true in an age where phones, computers, TVs and other screens capture so much attention. Our

children and spouse deserve our time. Let us resolve to give them more of it.

3. Get out of the house (safely)

While social distancing may still be the norm for the foreseeable future, we have to be creative in finding opportunities to spend

time outside of the house. Walks are the rage in my house right now. But, it is getting so hot (we live in Texas!) that walks are

going to be limited very soon. You could create a small and inexpensive water park in your yard, or pick up trash in your neighbor-

hood . Whatever it is, be creative. If you can also serve others while you are out of the house together, then that is a bonus.

4. Find joy in the little things

Personally, I have an aversion to certain games that others in my family like. But I know that sometimes I need to set aside my

personal biases and play them anyway. Inevitably, when I do this, I end up enjoying the people, if not the actual playing of the

game. This is one way I find I can find joy in a small thing. There are always joyful moments are all around me. Watching birds

near our house. Listening to my kids laugh together. Cooking a meal with others. There are many opportunities for each of us to

find joy (and thus find God) in the little things.

5. Support each other

I am a realist. We all sin and mess up. We all have bad times and low points. We have this crazy thing called free will. In my

house, we each love our own free will and hate everyone else’s free will. When this happens, we try to get our own way. Hurt

each other. Sin. Still, we can forgive and heal, too. This means we all need to be able to give room to the lows that we all have.

If your kids are struggling because they feel lonely being separated from friends, then affirm their feelings. Give them an

opportunity to talk. Pray with them. Comfort them. If they mess up and sin, then forgive them. It also may mean creating personal

time to spend alone. Growing as a family means helping one another when the other person needs us to be there.

6. Date your spouse

If you are married, you need to continue to date your spouse. Several times, my wife and I have made lunch and gone out on our

back patio to eat alone when going to a restaurant wasn’t a choice (because they were closed). Other times, we have gone to a

pavilion at a park. No matter how you do it, make special time to date your spouse. Maybe it means staying up an extra hour after

the kids go to bed so you can watch a movie together (or half a movie if you can’t stay awake). One of the best gifts parents can

give to their kids is an example of a healthy marriage, where each spouse prioritizes the other. Dating can also be an opportunity

to have important conversations and can keep the spark of romance alive in your marriage.

7. Set a routine

I am sure that most families with school-aged children had a decent routine during the school year. But, now that school is on

break, you may have to adjust and find a new schedule. It is worth the effort to do so. In our family, we always make sure the

priorities are done first , then limited screen time and other things may happen. Finding a routine in our schedules is good for us.

It helps set expectations. It is like having a liturgy for your life. The rhythm to the day can help each of us.

Your family is a blessing. This time is a blessing, even if it is difficult. Let us all take advantage of the graces God is giving our

families, so at the end we can all be better for it.
