We will have Mass outdoors this morning at 9:30 am despite the poor air quality. Parishioners who are sensitive to pollutants are urged to stay home and join us via livestream on our YouTube channel. Mass will be no longer than 40 minutes. There will be no singing by our music ministers.
We are pleased to announce that St. Matthias is now prepared to celebrate one Mass per weekend outdoors! Mass will be at 9:30 am on Sunday mornings starting on Sunday, September 6th. All are welcome!
This Mass will also be live-streamed. (The Saturday 5:00 pm Mass will be discontinued).
To attend outdoor Mass, please bring your own chair(s), hats and sunglasses (if desired). Mass will be in the area behind the Rectory Carport (the area we refer to as the “back-forty”).
There are no County Health Department imposed limits on the number of attendees that we can accommodate outdoors, so please feel free to bring your family and friends.
Please park in the Rectory parking lot and walk to the back of the property. Lisa and Sabrina will be there to greet you. Please proceed to one of the chalk circles on the ground and set up your chair(s).
The bulletin will serve as a worship aid. If you have questions, please email Sabrina.
With the Act of Spiritual Communion, we express our faith in Christ’s Real Presence in the Eucharist and ask Him to unite with us.
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
