*****please note the following changes to our mass schedule*****
We no longer offer a 9:00 am Mass on Wednesdays. The Wednesday Mass intentions already scheduled for the remainder of the year will be combined with the Friday 9:00 am Mass. Wednesday 9:00 am daily Mass is offered at Good Shepherd Church in Rhinebeck.
The 7:00 am Tuesday/Thursday Masses at the Holy Spirit Chapel have been permanently suspended. The Mass intentions will be added to the 9:00 am Mass of the same day for the remainder of the year.
Beginning in October, one Sunday Mass will be eliminated. The 10:30 am & 12:00 pm Masses will become an 11:00 am Mass.
These schedule changes reflect the diminished priest staffing of our parishes. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. -
