This weekend eleven of our Corpus Christi children will be receiving their First Communions. Fr. Patrick invites us all to join him in prayer for these children and their families, found in this weekend's bulletin.
2. Rescheduling Sunday Mass here at Corpus Christi As announced last week, our Sunday Mass schedule is shifting to one Mass at 11:00am. The 4:00 pm Mass on Saturday remains in place. The 11:00am Mass will be livestreamed. This is our third time this year where we have adapted to the impacts of the coronavirus. Please pray for a major decrease in the pandemic so that we can, once again, “return to normal”, and share each other’s company as we hear the Word of the Lord and receive the Holy Eucharist!

5. I Witness Several years ago, here at Corpus Christi, we invited our members to share some of their experiences of the Lord working in their lives. One time we called it “God Sightings” and another time we called it “I Witness”. It was a joy to see and hear about the experiences. We would like to invite YOU to consider telling us of your experiences with the Lord. Here are the questions we used previously:
Did you have an experience of God recently? How so?
Did God use someone to bless you recently? (Whether they knew it or not!) In what way?
Were you able to be a blessing to someone else this week? In what way?
When we did this last time, we put the questions on a half a sheet of paper. We did not expect lengthy answers … just little short stories. This time you can just send us an email. If you would like to see the past stories you can visit our Corpus Christi website by clicking on the red buttons below. If you would like to tell us of your recent story simply email it to the Evangelization Committee care of: [email protected]. Thanks already! And, yes, we would like you to include your name … but it is optional!
6. This Weekend’s Masses – 9:00am Mass will be livestreamed: Our Masses are: Saturday, 4pm; Sunday 9am and noon. The livestreaming of this weekend’s Mass will again be 9:00am Sunday morning. Click on the button below for viewing the Mass. [Videos of Masses from prior weekends are also available at this site]
If you have not registered (by noon on Saturday) to attend Mass in person and you still wish to attend a Mass at church this weekend please: - park in the parking lot a little ahead of Mass time, - go to the parking lot side entrance, - and ask the staff at that doorway if there is still available room. If there is room in church they will do a check-in process for you. Based on the slightly relaxed directions from AOD there is now more space available in the church to attend Mass in person.
