Church Reopening Plans
updated September 5, 2020
August 26 the school reopened and began its new school year!
After a few months of new Mass times, an adjustment was made to move the 1pm Mass to 12:30pm starting October 4, 2020.
updated July 11, 2020
We are now scheduling Baptisms, Funerals and Weddings. Read Fr. Simon's message for more details. Any questions, or to schedule any of these, please call the rectory.
updated June 27, 2020
Beginning July 5, our 7am Sunday Mass will now be a “drive-in” Mass in our parking lot, weather permitting. This Mass has limited capacity and is especially designed for the more vulnerable members of our parish who are not comfortable attending Mass in the basilica due to age, mobility, immune status or other health issues.
updated June 10, 2020
The basilica is OPEN for weekday Masses this Friday, June 12, and for weekend Masses June 13 & 14! Weekend Masses require a reservation. Remember to watch the video on the front page of our website!
updated June 4, 2020
The basilica is OPEN Saturday June 6 from 8:30 to 10 am for individual confessions.
It will be OPEN Sunday June 7 from 9 am to 1 pm for private prayer (a maximum of 10 allowed at a time).
Soon we will OPEN for Phase 2 (Weekday and Weekend Masses).
Please click here for safety requirements when entering the church. Enter through the Porte Cochere doors (covered entrance on west side) during the above times.
