Important Announcement

Dear Friends in Christ,

Father Bill informed me this morning that he was not feeling great.  He wisely decided to go to a doctor just to be sure.  He is not exhibiting all the symptoms of Covid19 but he was tested and we will need a few days to get back the results.  Again, he is feeling okay but is proceeding with the utmost caution.

In an overabundance of caution the priests are going to self-isolate and I am going to close the Church. There will be no confessions and no adoration until further notice (it breaks my heart but it is the best thing to do at the moment).  Father Sweeney and I are feeling fine at the moment.  I am going to send Father Sweeney to a different location just in case.

I will be sure to keep you updated.  It would be wise for anyone who has had contact with Father Bill to self-monitor or self-isolate just to be extra careful. Test results take a few days to get back. Of course, I will let everyone know once I hear.  Please contact your healthcare provider if you develop symptoms that may include coughing, fever, and shortness of breath.

Please keep us in prayer and please take care of yourself.  Know of my deepest prayers for all of you.

In Christ,

Msgr. Panke
