St. Mary Magdalen 

• 9/24/20:  Mass for the 26th Sunday in Ordinary Time will be live-streamed at 4:30pm on our YouTube Channel & available to view after.  The worship aid for this weekend & 9/27/20 bulletin are also available online. 

• 9/24/20:  New procedure for receiving communion & communion distribution: Communion will continue to be at the end of mass. We ask that you remain in your seat until an usher dismisses your pew for communion. Those sitting in the larger center pews, proceed to communion as usual up the center aisle once dismissed. NEW PROCEDURE for those in outlining pews: After distributing communion to the center aisle, the Eucharistic Ministers will move to the outlining areas for distribution. Once dismissed by an usher, you will GO UP YOUR AISLE to receive communion, then depart. The arrows on the floor have been updated to reflect this change. If receiving on the tongue you must go to the end of the communion line.  (Our communion procedures have been changing and we apologize if this has caused confusion. Based on the most up to date information, we are doing our best to make decisions that reflect the safest procedures. To ensure we are well ventilated, the top windows will remain open and our newest communion procedure listed below helps to lower the flow of movement between people. Reminder, the cry room / training room remains unavailable due to the lack of ventilation. Please do not sit or stand in this area.)

• 9/9/10:  Please read the "Call to Informed Participation in the Political Process" from Bishop Malooly which also includes the Litany of St. Thomas More.

There will be 1 Mass intention said per Mass, a maximum of five (5) mass intention requests per person and the donation is $10 for each Mass.

Recent email & text scam impersonating Fr. Kirk:  If you happen to receive an email or text requesting money or gift cards please disregard. Do not send money or pictures of gift card #'s as requested. Parishioners have recently reported receiving these and it is a scam. These emails & texts are not from Father Kirk.
