Christ the King will also not hold services in our buildings, and AA (our largest weekly public gathering) will not be meeting here a

As cases of coronavirus COVID-19 continue to multiply exponentially, it’s important to remember that people of faith have gotten through tough times before. We will get through COVID-19, too – by taking all mandated and recommended precautions seriously and by supporting one another in creative ways. St. Mary’s will be following all new diocesan mandates and recommendations on Sunday, including: • Offering communion bread only. • Passing the Peace with no physical contact.

On the Fourth Sunday of Lent (March 22) the St. Mary’s Adult Choir, soloists and string trio will present Mozart’s Missa brevis in D at the 10am service. Mozart composed this setting for the Salzburg Cathedral in 1774 when he was still a teenager. It was the first of Mozart’s masses to be published, printed initially in 1793. Because of its expressive character and beautiful melodic lines it has remained one of Mozart’s well-known sacred works. Please join us on Sunday, March
