IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS
LETTER FROM FATHER FRANKY
June 4, 2020
Dear parishioners,
The unjustified killing of George Floyd under the knee of a Minneapolis police officer, Derek Chauvin on Memorial Day last week is appalling to watch. The very people whose job is to safeguard the lives of others turn out to be the ones to destroy them, based on their prejudices or fears. Many of you, have called the parish asking about the position of the Church in regard to this sad event, I can assure you that it is not different from Jesus’ position. Jesus is always on the side of the oppressed. Pope Francis, on Wednesday daily briefing stated: “we cannot tolerate or turn a blind eye to racism and exclusion in any form and yet claim to defend the sacredness of every human life. At the same time, the Pope acknowledged the negative effects of violence. He said: “violence is self-destructive and self-defeating” America is great not when we pursue the path of racism and exclusion, but we stand together as one nation under God.

ARCHDIOCESE OF MIAMI ANNOUNCEMENT
Dear Parishioners,
As we reopen our churches for the celebration of the Mass and Sacraments with the People of God present and actively participating, we recognize that we cannot eliminate the very possible risk of infection from the novel corona virus or COVID-19. However, your parish priests and I are committed to mitigating the risk as much as possible. We reopen because we believe as Church that there are no substitutes for the reception of the sacraments and our first priority is to be the sign of hope and instrument of the salvation of the entire human race."
On Tuesday, May 26, parishes will resume celebrating daily Masses. (May 18 in Monroe County). However, social distancing will be required with approximately 6 feet separation between persons (except for family members from same household); worshippers are asked to wear a face mask and to keep it on during Mass, removing it only to receive Holy Communion.
