Welcome 

            We wish to welcome all our parishioners, new residents in the area, and those who may be visiting to Saint Jude the Apostle Parish.
As you participate in our Masses, we invite you to please take note of some of the safety guidelines for all participants. These guidelines are recommendations in consideration of a safe environment during the pandemic, and the recent increase in the number of Covid positive cases.
            There is no doubt that the increase in the Covid positive cases has no boundaries as people who are vaccinated, or not vaccinated; young or old, male or female could get the virus.  To help all who attend our parish, and provide a safe environment, we clean our pews with an anti Covid liquid after the Masses, and wipe down touch points like handles with anti-bacterial liquids after the masses as well.
            We are inviting parishioners to wear masks as a recommendation, and please sanitize your hands upon arrival as you enter into the Church Narthex. We have maintained social distancing on the Communion line as we remain in single file to receive, and begin the line from the last pew to the first pew.
            Though no one can ever make total promises regarding any illness, we are trying to be proactive in caring for the safety of all parishioners. We believe that the minor steps that we take can aid in your safety.  With the help of God, we will be safe, and will see the recent increase of cases not affect our faithful.  May God continue to bless you with good health now, and in the New Year.
