Theme: The Creed — I Believe in God
Please be reminded of Bishop Persico’s guidelines for attending Mass:
• With increased COVID cases in Mercer County, for their own protection and that of others, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that all wear masks while in church.
• .It is recommended that those approaching for Communion should sanitize their hands before entering the line to receive Communion.
• Bishop Persico's words at the Town Hall Meeting: ‘I really, really encourage you to receive Communion in the hand, out of consideration for people at this moment it would be best to receive Communion in the hand. This is about charity.’
