Today Fr. Michael Novajosky celebrated a votive sung Mass of the Holy Eucharist to conclude 40 Hours Devotion at St. Augustine Cathedral in Bridgeport, CT.

As outgoing administrator of Sacred Heart Parish Church in Georgetown, CT, Father Peter Lenox will pray a Requiem Mass for the souls of all deceased parishioners of Sacred Heart Parish tomorrow, Saturday, January 30, at 10 am. (Starting in February, this parish will be merged with St. Patrick in Reddington.) Please register for this Mass, as there may be many who wish to attend. SacredHeartGeorgetownCT.org

Father Lenox will continue to pray Solemn Masses at Sacred Heart Church, going forward. This means that each Wednesday evening at 6pm there will be a Missa Cantata, as well as each Sunday afternoon at 3pm on Sundays. And on Holy Days of Obligation (and other select feast days!), Father will continue to offer Missae Cantatae at 12 Noon.

From the Latin Mass Community of Jersey City:

Please be advised of another change in location and Mass time on this Third Sunday after Epiphany, January 24, 2021. 

We will have a 3pm Missa Cantata at Our Lady of Sorrows Church (75 Claremont Ave between Ocean Ave and Clerk St). 

There is a Church parking lot across the street. 

This will be the first Mass in the Extraordinary Form there in over 50 years.

We are grateful to Fr. Mino Chica, pastor of Our Lady of Sorrows Parish, for his approval to have a 3pm Latin Mass the next two Sundays.

Solemn Mass in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite, Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, will be celebrated on January 13, 2021, 6:00 p.m., at St Augustine Church, 30 Caputo Road, North Branford, CT, Fr. Robert L. Turner, celebrant, Fr. Michael Clark, deacon and preacher.

From Fr. John Perricone:

Beginning next Sunday, January 17^th, our Traditional Mass will be offered at St. Joseph’s Church in Jersey City, located at Pavonia and Baldwin Avenue.  Some of you may recall that we have celebrated several Masses there for different feasts.  St. Joseph’s seems to afford better opportunities for us to carry out the various liturgical feasts to which we have become accustomed. 

We would like to thank Fr. Thomas, pastor of St. Paul’s, and his ever helpful curate, Fr. Joseph, for all their gracious indulgences over these past several months.

The Mass at St. Joseph’s will be celebrated at the same time as this one – 2:00 PM.
