Adoration:
Will be inside at Holy Martyrs Monday mornings after 8:15 mass until 10am. In addition, the church will be open for being to pray before Tabernacle (not Monstrance) at 4:30 on Mondays. Adoration will continue at St. Gregory’s on Friday mornings after 8am mass.
Confessions
Reconciliation will move indoors at Holy Martyrs and St. Gregory’s. At Holy Martyrs, people will stand before a partition in the chapel, and wait in the narthex, socially distanced from each other. Time will be Saturdays from 2 to 3:15 at Holy Martyrs & St Gregory. At St. Gregory’s, the priest will be in confessional. Penitents will need to stand behind the screen (not kneel). Those waiting will wait standing in the Church, socially distances from each other. Additionally, there will be Confession at Holy Martyrs on Tuesdays from 12:30pm-1:00pm. There will be no Confession at Sacred Heart or St Jude at this time.
Daily Masses
Because of construction at Sacred Heart, morning mass on Monday and Tuesday will be moved to Holy Martyrs at the same 8:15 time. All other masses will remain the same. There will be no funeral masses at SH during the week; Saturday funerals will be scheduled as possible.
Holy Communion outside Mass:
The Bishop has given permission for people who watch a mass livestreamed to come to a Church to receive the Eucharist. We will begin to implement this on Sunday mornings. Deacon Dennis, one of the priests, or an Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist will be available at Holy Martyrs and St. Gregory’s from the end of mass to 10am. People are asked to enter the Church, come down the center aisle to receive communion, and then to depart. We ask that people keep distanced from one another approaching the altar, and do not congregate in groups waiting to receive.
Parish Office:
The parish office in Falmouth will be open on Monday and Wednesday mornings from 9 to 11. This will allow parishioners to drop things off, request items from staff, etc. We ask that people respectfully wait for the volunteer or staff person to be free. If you wish to make a visit to the Church, please stand in the doorway and do not touch any surface that would then need to be sanitized.
