Dear Parishioners,
 
As you are aware, the stay at home order has been lifted and we can once again attend Mass in Church; however, some limitations are still in effect:

• ADORATION:  We would like to begin Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament again at St. Michael's and Sts. Cyril & Methodius: however, we may need to make changes.  We may have to go to one day at St. Michael's and at both churches we may have to change the hours.  If you were on the schedule before COVID and would like to resume your Adoration hour, please call either Veronica Kresse at (979) 793-4477 for St. Michael's or Eileen Medwedeff at (281) 750-9092 for Sts. Cyril & Methodius.  If you would like to sign up or like to be a substiture, please call also.                                                                                          *Please Note:  Adoration at Sts. Cyril & Methodius has begun again on a limited basis on Wednesday after the 8 a.m. Mass until 9:30 a.m.  
• LITURGICAL MINISTERS:  We have started back with the Liturgical Ministry Schedule each week.  If you were a lector, usher, altar server, eucharistic minister, sacristan, Rosary leader or Money Counter, please contact the either Parish Office and let us know if we can put you back on the schedule.  We are currently not able to resume the Chalice Ministry.
• CHURCH OPEN FOR SILENT PRAYER:  St. Michael's Church remains open during Office Hours 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. for Silent Prayer.  The Eucharist is present in the Tabernacle.   
• NURSING HOME & HOMEBOUND COMMUNION CALLS:  SPJST Nursing home communion service and mass have been suspended until further notice.  Also, Communion to the homebound has been suspended.  If you have an emergency, please call the Parish Office.
• KC FISH FRY FRIDAYS:  The Knights of Columbus Fish Fry is a Drive-Thru ONLY and held on the second Friday of every month from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at the Columbus Club Hall in Needville.  The next Fish Fry will be Friday, June 11, 2021.  There will be NO Fish Fry in July or August.
• BINGO:  KC Monday night bingo at the Columbus Club Hall has been suspended until further notice.
• FAITH FORMATION:  Faith Formation Classes ended for the year.  Registration for the 2021-2022 EFF & Youth Ministry School Year will begin soon.  

 
Please keep our parishioners and all people around the world in your prayers during this outbreak. Both parish offices will remain open during regular hours to answer any questions you may have.
 
Yours in Christ,
Rev. Marty Pham
