At this time, we are preparing some adult parishioners for the ministries of Lector and Altar Server. If you feel that you might be called to one of these ministries of service at the celebration of weekday or Sunday Mass, please speak with Father Steven, Deacon Mick or Deacon Scott. We are happy to prepare you for either of these ministries. We look forward to resuming the participation and training of our young adults and children in ministries at the altar during the fall.

We are happy to announce that Rachel Crouse will assume the position of parish office administrator. Rachel, her husband, and two young children are parishioners of Our Lady of Good Counsel. Rachel and her family usually attend the 8:30 am Sunday Mass. Please be sure to extend a welcome to Rachel! Please note, when corresponding with the parish office, Rachel's parish email is: r.crouse@goodcounselma.com.

Our weekly observance of Eucharistic Adoration on Wednesdays will be suspended for the months of July and August. We are mindful that during these summer months many of our parishioners are away. The final period of adoration will be Wednesday, June 30, from 3 - 6 pm. We will resume on Wednesday, September 8, 2021.

Beginning June 5th, the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Penance, Confession) will return to the usual time of 3:30 - 4:15 on Saturdays. We will no longer be using the Sacristy, but will resume using the Reconciliation Chapel.

Volunteers needed - can you help?!

With the improving health situation within the Commonwealth, and with the loosening of certain indoor restrictions, it is our hope to resume the usual offertory collection at Mass on the weekend of June 5 - 6. At that time, we will remove the offering baskets that have been placed at the doors to the church. We will keep everyone updated as the date approaches.
