of mind and heartMy Dear Parish Family,As we have had a pause in the 5:30 Saturday Vigil Mass at Christ the Good Shepherd during these darker days of the year, we will be starting this Mass time back up beginning next Saturday February 15th. Just a heads up of what will be occurring starting next weekend.There will be another slight change to occur as well. Confessions/Reconciliation will happen on Saturdays from 3:00 to 3:45 at Holy Family and will not be scheduled after the 5:30 Mass at Christ the Good Shepherd. This time on Saturday is open to both Parishes and it’s a time that’s more convenient, because you can go to Confession before Mass begins and then be able to receive Holy Communion.I have two Saturday Vigil Masses and this is something that most Priests do not have or, if they do, they have the assistance of other Priests to help them. As a result, I have to change the schedule for the Sacrament of Confession/Reconciliation on Saturdays to just the 3:00 hour.It was easier to do things like this when Christ the Good Shepherd had multiple Priests, but now it’s just me at Christ the Good Shepherd in addition to Holy Family.May God Bless you and Mary keep you,Fr. Christopher
