Marriage Preparation:
Couples planning marriage should contact the parish as soon as they become engaged because at least six months is ordinarily necessary to fulfill marriage preparation requirements. At least one party must be a registered, participating member of the parish. The first step is for both parties to attend the Marriage Information Meeting on the fourth Thursday of most months at 6:30 p.m. Next meeting: August 26th. After that meeting, contact Debbie for an appointment with one of the priests.
Important: Those with prior marriages, religious or civil, must make an appointment with a priest prior to attending the Marriage Information Meeting to determine freedom to marry. (This requirement does not apply to those who are widowed.)

Ministry to the Sick:
The priest will often be able to anoint you after Mass
(except 7:45 a.m. Saturday & 4:00 p.m. Saturday Mass). Please call the parish if you need to receive the anointing of the
sick at home. In emergency situations when the office is closed, the answering service will relay the information to one of
the priests. In case of hospitalization, let the hospital staff know that you would like to have the Catholic priest chaplain
see you.

In the event of the death of a loved one, please contact the parish before making arrangements with a mortuary. The parish does not make funeral arrangements with the mortuary or other businesses but only with loved ones of the deceased.
