SUNDAY MASS TIME CHANGE ~ The time for Sunday Mass will change effective September 12th. Because the Bishop has mandated that priests not say more than two Masses on Sunday, the 7:30 AM Mass will be cancelled. However, in order that I may be more available to work with the PSR children here and at St. Mary, Morges, I am changing the time for Sunday Mass to 8:30 AM. I am aware that this change will cause difficulty for some, but I feel it will be a greater benefit for many. Your servant in Christ, Fr. Batt
