Sunday Mass Invitation: Per guidance from the Cambridge Health Dept., Mask should be worn at all Masses. Cardinal Sean has indicated that the dispensation from mandatory attendance at Sunday Mass is lifted and so he, and all of us at Saint John’s extend the heartfelt invitation to come back to the celebration of Sunday Mass here. While we would never want to apply the word obligation to such an invitation offered to adults, we do urge a spiritual friendship with Jesus Christ which is culminated each week at the Eucharist. We also have as a motivation for such invitation the desire to see and speak with all of the good folks of our parish. While we will continue to offer live streaming of all funeral Masses celebrated here, we will soon end the streaming of Sunday Mass in order to urge in person attendance.  Thank you and God Bless, Fr. Joe

The We look forward to the opening of the parish hall for rental, and to the possibility of more and more coming back to donate for use of the parking lot.
