Dear Parishioners of Saint Petronille,

Revised Mass Schedule

Saint Petronille has been open for Masses for a month now. Thank you to all of our dedicated volunteers that make this possible. Whether cleaners, greeters or setup people there is a great deal of work to be done each and every week before and after each Mass. These volunteers are what make it possible for Saint Petronille to have Mass each day. Kudos to them!

Since the same people tend to volunteer each and every week, we need to be conscious of the burden they carry and do what we can lift some of that burden. We have noticed that almost all of the Masses do not exceed the permitted number of people in the church building and we have also noticed that a very small number of people attend the 5 pm Sunday Mass at this time. For all of these reasons, we are going to need to revise the Mass schedule for the foreseeable future. For the time being, we will no longer offer the possibility of the PLC at any of the Masses except the 9:30 am Mass on Sunday. There simply is no need for this at this time and this will make the burden of our volunteers just a little lighter. Further, because of the low attendance and to help our volunteers, we will not be offering the Sunday evening Mass at 5 pm until August 23^rd. We will continue to offer the Saturday evening Mass at 5 pm and the 7:30, 9:30 and 11:30 Masses each and every week. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes you. The best way to insure that we continue to be able to offer on-site Masses is to volunteer to help. If you would like to help, please email reopen@stpetschurch.org or phone the parish office at 630-469-0404.

School and Faith Formation

Presently, our faith formation and school staff plan to begin classes according to the published schedule this Fall. They are using this summer to formulate a plan designed to keep our students safe while continuing to offer in-class education. Once the details of these plans are formulated, we will be sending this information home to our parents. Please watch your school and faith formation communications for these details in the coming weeks.

May Almighty God bless you and keep you.

In Christ,

Fr. Milota
