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.

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.
