Construction around our Church building is almost complete. We expect to be able to celebrate masses this weekend inside the Church building! If anything changes, we will post on our website, social media and send a Flocknote email to all parishioners. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we complete this capital improvement project!
Due to continued construction, all weekend Masses on August 3 and August 4 will be held in the Parish Center. Unfortunately, we will not be able to livestream any of our masses this weekend due to equipment constraints. Thank you for your understanding and support as the drainage problems around our church building are being fixed.
The updates to the drainage issues in the Church basement are well underway at St. Pats! Construction began in mid-July and will continue through August. Due to access availability issues, weekend masses were held in the Parish Center this past weekend. Please check our website, weekly Flocknote newsletters (emailed on Thursday mornings) and our Facebook account for any updates and changes to our weekend mass locations over the next few weeks. Thank you for your patience while this portion of our capital improvements are being completed!
