During the month of October, our Mass schedule will be as follows: Masses are on Saturday at 4 p.m. and Sunday at 7:30, 8:30, and 10 a.m.

Please bear in mind that the Sunday morning 7:30 a.m. Mass is a temporary accommodation during this period.

Since 4 p.m. Mass on Saturday and 10 a.m. Mass on Sunday can easily reach our seating capacity, please consider attending at 7:30 a.m. or 8:30 a.m. on Sunday morning. It may be necessary to turn people away at the Mass times with fuller attendance.

As the State of Louisiana enters Phase 3 of reopening, there will be no changes in our Mass schedule through the month of September.

Masses are on Saturday at 4 p.m. and Sunday at 7:30, 8:30, and 10 a.m.

Please bear in mind that the Sunday morning 7:30 a.m. Mass is a temporary accommodation during this period.

Our 7:30 a.m. daily Mass is canceled due to the arrival of Hurricane Laura. Through the intercession of St. Joseph, may we be spared the loss of life and property from this storm.

While the feast of the Assumption is not a holyday of obligation this year, nevertheless the Mass of the Assumption of our Lady will be celebrated at St. Patrick’s at 8 a.m. on Saturday, August 15, 2020.

Since the State of Louisiana now requires the use of face coverings in public gatherings, and in light of the Bishop of Lafayette’s appeal to use masks, those who attend Mass are to wear the recommended face covering.

In Phase II of reopening, the weekend Mass schedule is as follows, with the temporary Mass in italics:

Saturday, 4 p.m.

Sunday, 7:30 a.m.       Sunday, 8:30 a.m.          Sunday, 10 a.m.

At the present time, St. Patrick’s is limited to 50% occupancy. However, to respect social distancing norms, only about 60 people can be admitted.

Please be aware that once capacity is reached, no further entry will be allowed. Please plan your attendance with the limited capacity and expanded Mass schedule in mind. Plan to be flexible. Plan to exercise patience and charity.

All Catholics remain dispensed from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass. Those who wish to gather for the celebration of holy Mass, and who are otherwise healthy, may do so. If you are sick in any way, or have any kind of cough, you should remain at home. Those who have underlying health conditions that make them more vulnerable to Covid-19 should follow the recommendations of health professionals.
