Fr. Rich Shines a Light on Possibilities

Consider his suggestions for Advent in Rich Thoughts.

Then, take out your calendar and mark the dates you won’t want to miss this Advent. There won’t be a traditional Advent/Christmas mailing this year. Instead, we’ll take advantage of plasticity by listing our events online – as, well, you know, Baby, it’s COVID outside and anything can happen! We appreciate your flexibility! Visit Advent 2020.

Seven Masses are scheduled for this Christmas Eve and Day at St. Austin’s. Those seven Masses will only accommodate about 800 of our usual Christmas faithful of over 1,400. To maximize available seating, while minimizing disappointments, we’ll be taking registrations for reservations this year. Please take a careful walk through the information and then submit your form at Christmas Mass Registration.

Feel the need for virtual community this weekend? Join our community or the Paulists from coast to coast! Visit We Gave Thanks at Together Apart.

Finally, Fr. Rich invites you to share this moment of song from a COVID chorus of 300 people from 15 countries to remind us all that we’ll never walk alone. (Video, 3:10 minutes.)

There’s always more to see at Events. And don’t forget the looming deadline to recertify your EIM credentials online.
