MARRIAGES

We request that couples contemplating marriage call the rectory at least six months in advance of their desired wedding date to make an appointment with the priest.  At this initial interview, the date and time of your requested Wedding date will be recorded and you will receive a copy of the Parish Wedding Guidelines.

 

SACRAMENT OF THE SICK/COMMUNION CALLS

A priest will administer Holy Communion to parishioners who are unable to come to Church. If you desire, Eucharistic Ministers can bring Communion each week. Please contact the Rectory to be placed on our Sick List.  Parishioners who are to undergo serious surgery at a hospital are encouraged to make an appointment at the Rectory before going to the hospital.
