 A Message Concerning the
Obligation to Attend Mass

Even though the Archbishop has not extended the dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass, these are extraordinary times and we are still in a pandemic.  My primary concern is for your health, safety, and protection.  Let your conscience be your guide.  Please do not feel any pressure to return for Sunday Eucharist until the time is right and safe for you.  Our Lord loves you just as much if you decide it best to stay home.  If you are unsure whether your circumstances excuse you from the obligation to attend Mass, please discuss this with me personally.  I am happy to provide individual dispensation if this supportive affirmation is of help to you.  Prayers for you always.
Fr. Charlie


Masses of Christian Burial

During the pandemic, we have put in place many safety measures for the protection of all who gather at Saint Jude the Apostle parish and school.  This applies to funerals as well.  Because of the design of our worship space and vestibule, we are not able to safely accommodate a visitation in church before a Mass of Christian Burial.  If a family desires a visitation it would need to take place at a funeral home or some other venue.

What to Do if One Tests Positive
after Attending Mass

If a parishioner attends Mass and later discovers they have tested positive for Covid-19, parishes are to contact the local or county health department, and make a report with the specific date and time the parishioner attended Mass.  It is essential the parish follow the instructions of the health department.  If proper protocols of social distancing and mask wearing were followed, then most likely the parish will not need to shut down.  The parish should also notify their parishioners of the specific date and Mass the person attended, without mentioning any names.  This will help to make everyone aware of their possible exposure.  Obviously, the parish will need to do a thorough cleaning of the building before Mass is celebrated again.   Let us pray for an end to the coronavirus and for that to happen, we must all do our part. Fr. Jerry Herda, The Catholic Herald 11-5-20

 Saint Jude the Apostle Parish and School truly is our "Faith Family".  With that in mind, we have initiated a new scholarship fund to provide financial support in our school community to those who have been impacted by Covid-19. 
Our new Lighting the Way Educational Scholarship has been established to provide financial assistance to those families in need -helping our current Saint Jude students remain in our school.
We recognize this is a difficult time for all.  However, we also know that some individuals, some companies, and some organizations are still in a position to support others financially.
You can donate to the Saint Jude Lighting the Way Educational Scholarship by clicking on the Support Us tab of this web site.  Go to Online Giving and click on We Share.  You can also donate by sending a check payable to:
Saint Jude the Apostle School, 800 Glenview Avenue, Wauwatosa, WI  53213
Please mark Lighting the Way Educational Scholarship in the memo notation.
