The Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ
according to Saint John 14:21-27
They who have my commandments and keep them are
those who love me; and those who love me will be loved by my
Father, and I will love them and reveal myself to them.’
Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, ‘Lord, how is it that you will
reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?’ Jesus answered
him, ‘Those who love me will keep my word, and my Father will
love them, and we will come to them and make our home with
them.
Whoever does not love me does not keep my words; and
the word that you hear is not mine, but is from the Father who
sent me. ‘I have said these things to you while I am still with
you. But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will
send in my name, will teach you everything, and remind you of
all that I have said to you.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give
to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled,
and do not let them be afraid.

Revised Church & Hall Guidelines
Church: We continue to follow the guidelines established by the Diocese of Allentown. The diocese announced last month that it will lift church seating capacity restrictions. Masks are optional for parishioners.
Other precautions will remain in place at Mass, including the requirement that priests and others distributing Holy Communion wear masks and cleanse their hands as needed. No physical touch at the Sign of Peace during Mass. The Sunday Mass obligation for Catholics also remains suspended.
Church Hall: Clean up required of trash and food. Anyone using the hall will be responsible for leaving it in good condition. At the very least, the same way they found it.
$300 rental fee for a 1 day rental (a day is one calendar date, not hours from 2 different days).
$150 for a pre-day preparation. $200 cleaning charge
SUBJECT TO CHANGE PER CDC AND PENNSYLVANIA GUIDELINES
HERITAGE DAYS MEETING
All parishioners are welcome to attend the Heritage Days meeting on Monday, June 7th at
7:00 PM in the church hall.
