Mask use in our parish church is optional but recommended. Masks are recommended in order to protect the more vulnerable in our community, like children and those with compromised immunities. If you are sick in any way or even feeling a little “under the weather,” please stay home! Our concern is for your good health and the good health of those in the pews around you. Thank you.

St. Matthew’s Gospel was written originally in the Greek language. It might be helpful, therefore, to know that the Greek word makarioi (translated in Matthew 5, 1-12 as “blessed”) translates just as well as “happy,” or “deserving of honor,” or “highly esteemed.” What makes us happy?
