Dear Family of Saint Jude,

Please, Please stay at home if you don’t have a big emergency to go out. Right now two cases are confirmed in Flanders.

Some people have asked me for the Holy Hour; but Bishop says in the letter “Where possible”. I decided not to do it because the commitment is to avoid crowds of more than 10 people. But right now, with the two cases, more than before, I ask you to stay home.

Let’s continue, then, our path of holding hands spiritually in prayer. I am continuing to invoke our Blessed Mother with the prayer to protect all our Saint Jude Church families.

Sincerely yours in Christ,
FR. ANTONIO
Pastor

Mass Broadcasts During Suspension of Public Masses in the Paterson Diocese
Per Bishop Serratelli, liturgical celebrations are to be live streamed and not recorded so that the faithful may prayerfully unite themselves from their homes with the sacred action taking place in the parish church or chapel.
1) Sunday Mass at St. Jude: every Sunday at 12 Noon. View at https://www.facebook.com/st.judebuddlake/. Scroll down to see the live-stream.
2) Good Shepherd: 9 AM live with Father Tim and Father Michael: goodshepherdrc.org. Scroll down to the spot where it says “LIVE.”  When mass is ready to begin one will view the altar in the Daily Chapel.
