New Guidelines for Mass
New Guidelines for Mass based on CDC and our state:
1. Masks OPTIONAL at the 10:30 Mass for those who are fully vaccinated. Masks still required at the 5:00 PM and 8:30 Masses for those who are not vaccinated or not yet comfortable. This is an ‘experiment’ for this weekend to provide options for our parishioners…as we navigate changes together.
2. Open Seating: Since the state now allows more people in the church (60% capacity) through the newly opened "Bridge Phase," there are no ropes in the four side sections of the church to accommodate people who feel comfortable sitting closer together. At this time, we will continue to offer roped-off ‘distanced’ seating in the two center (main aisle) section for those who choose.
Thank you for your patience and support during these changing, challenging times. -

We are Saying Good-Bye to Formed
We sincerely hope that all of you have enjoyed being able to use Formed for the last several years. As we switch over to using Word on Fire’s digital resources, we will be ending our parish’s subscription to Formed on May 17th. If you wish to continue using Formed on your own, you can purchase an individual subscription for $10/month or $100/year. We know that many of you found the materials on Formed helpful and inspiring and hope that you find the Word on Fire materials to be just as, if not more, formative for your faith journey. More detailed information for how to access the new Word on Fire materials can be found at www.stclarechurch.org/word-on-fire-digital. If you have any questions about this change or how to access the new Word on Fire materials, please reach out to Matt Flynn (mattflynn@stclarechurch.org, 632-3562).
