O Victorious Lady, thou who has ever such powerful influence with thy Divine Son in conquering the hardest of hearts, intercede for those for those for whom we pray, that, their hearts being softened by the ways of Divine Grace, they may return to the unity of the true Faith, through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
Archdiocese Policies for Health Concerns
Statement of Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann Regarding Cancellation of Public Masses in the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas
In conjunction with the bishops of Kansas, effective 1 p.m. March 17, 2020, and until further notice, all public celebrations of the Holy Mass in the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas are cancelled except for funeral Masses. Funeral Masses must be limited to no more than 50 people, including clergy, assisting ministers, family members and friends. No funeral luncheons may be held. A funeral liturgy outside of Mass must be limited in size as above. In addition to celebrating the funeral Mass or funeral liturgy outside of Mass, families and pastors are encouraged to schedule Memorial Masses for their loved ones in the future, when public health restrictions are relaxed, so that larger numbers may gather if desired.
All communal penance services are cancelled. Priests should continue as much as possible to offer individual confessions at regularly scheduled times, including Wednesday evenings during Lent. Confessions are to be heard only behind a screen or other barrier and not face to face. At no time should there be more than 50 people gathered in the church.
Baptisms may continue but only parents, godparents and immediate family members who are asymptomatic may attend, and in no case more than 50 people.
I encourage all of the faithful to continue to join together in prayer for the health and protection of our entire community and nation, and for an end to this crisis. I encourage all families and individuals to pray the rosary, invoking the intercession and protection of our Blessed Mother, Health of the Sick, for these intentions and for the health and well-being of our brothers and sisters who are ill, for their caretakers, and for all doctors, nurses, medical and emergency preparedness personnel and elected officials. I encourage pastors, as much as possible, to post hours that their churches will be open for private prayer with our Eucharistic Lord present in the tabernacle. At no time should there be more than 50 people gathered in the church.
Do not come to any of the above if you are sick, if you have been exposed to the coronavirus, if you suspect you have been exposed or if you have been advised by a doctor not to go out in public or attend public gatherings.
40 Days for Life
40 Days for Life has begun and St. Philippine Duchesne has agreed to provide coverage for the whole day on Friday, March 13th. Please see the sign up sheet in the vestibule of the church for the hours needed for coverage.
Stations of the Cross during Lent
On the Fridays of Lent, the Way of the Cross will be prayed after each Mass.
Confessions during Lent
On the Wednesdays of Lent, Confessions will be available from 6:00-7:00pm, in addition to the normally scheduled times.
Octave of Church Unity (Jan. 18-25)
The eight days from January 18, the feast of the Chair of St. Peter in Rome, to January 25, the Feast of the Conversion of St. Paul, are kept as the devotional Octave of Church Unity,
Prayer
ANT. That they all may be one, as Thou, Father, in me and I in Thee; that they also may be one in Us; that the world may believe that Thou hast sent Me.
V. I say unto thee, thou art Peter.
R. And upon this rock I will build my Church.
Let us pray. Lord Jesus Christ, who didst say to Thine Apostles: Peace I leave you, My peace I give you; consider not my sins, but the faith of Thy Church, and deign to keep it in peace and unity according to Thy will; Who livest and reignest, God, through all eternity. Amen.
