Holy Week 2020

All Masses and services for Holy Week, the Sacred Paschal Triduum, and Easter Sunday will be celebrated by the priests without the presence of the faithful on account of the Coronavirus pandemic.

The church(es) will be open for private pray during the following hours:

Palm Sunday
St. Joseph 9am-noon

Monday-Wednesday of Holy Week
    St. Joseph & St. Stephen 7am-2pm

Holy Thursday
St. Joseph 7am-2pm & 6pm-9pm

Good Friday
St. Joseph 7am-3pm

Holy Saturday
St. Joseph Noon-3pm

Easter Sunday

We regret that we must cancel distribution of palms this weekend. In light of a recommendation received from the Diocese late Friday afternoon (4/3), the governor’s latest recommendations, and the fact that some stores are now beginning to regulate access, we believe that this difficult choice is the most prudent at the present time. We recognize that the constant changes are frustrating. Let us continue to pray for all those impacted by this pandemic.

We regret that, by order of the Bishop, we are currently unable to offer scheduled confession times. If you would like to make an appointment with Fr. Miller or Fr. McElrath to go to confession, please call the parish office at (814) 677-3020 and choose Ext. 4 for Fr. Miller or Ext. 5 for Fr. McElrath.
