Distribution of Communion is offered to parishioners who are unable to attend Mass due to personal or family related health concerns and can be received after the Mass dismissal on Saturdays at OLOL from 5-5:15 and Sundays at STJ from 11:15-11:30. Receiving the Blessed Sacrament alone does not take the place of Sunday Mass. Parishioners who receive the Blessed Sacrament outside of the Mass should also prayerfully participate in the Liturgy by viewing a Live Stream or Recorded Mass at home. Please contact Father John if you have any additional questions.
The diocese would like to invite men who are considering a vocation to the priesthood to an evening of prayer, conversation with the Vocations Team and dinner. There will be evenings for different age groups and they will take place at the Joseph House at 279 Cartier St in Manchester. Please RSVP to Becky Vinson at rvinson@rcbm.org or 663-0153 if you would like to attend. October 5: high school - age 14-18; October 19: young men - age 19-24; November 2: older men - age 25+
