Dear Parishioners,
Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you, our families of St. Christopher as we face the impact of COVID-19 in our lives and our work. As we navigates through these changes, with Masses and other parish services cancelled by many bishops. These are prudent and necessary measures designed to keep people healthy. But they come at some cost: For many people, this removes one of the most consoling parts of their lives—the Mass and the Eucharist—and isolates them even more from the community at a time when they most need support. What can one do instead? Well, there are many televised and livestreamed Masses available, as well as ones broadcast on the radio. But even if you can’t find one, you can pray on your own. When you do, remember that you’re still part of a community. Please know that St. Christopher Church remains open for Prayer. There is also the longstanding tradition in our church of receiving a “spiritual communion,” when, if you cannot participate in the Mass in person, you unite yourself with God in prayer. Blessings Fr. Chris |

Dear member of St. Christopher Community,
In the recent discussions with the Bishop of the Diocese of San Jose and the county health officials, we have been told that we have reached the exponential phase of the epidemic, with the number of those testing positive for the Coronavirus expected to rise dramatically. Bishop Cantu has requesting that all parishes, missions, and chapels in the Diocese of San José suspend all public Masses beginning Saturday, March 14, until further notice With the preceding in mind, Bishop Cantu has issued a dispensation from the obligation to attend Mass during this time for all Catholics in the Diocese of San José. PLEASE KNOW THAT THE CHURCH WILL REMAIN OPEN FOR PRAYER Let us pray for each other that the Lord will give us strength and perseverance, calm the fears of our communities, and put an end to this disease as quickly as possible. Holding you all in prayer. Bishop Cantú |
