Outdoor Holy Communion is available after Mass on Saturday until 5:30 pm. Please follow these guidelines and precautions we need to follow to stay safe and reflect our deep reverence for the Eucharist:

1. Please don't arrive super early and come park in the parking lot. This allows our Eucharistic Ministers to set-up.


2. Please enter from Ulysses St. using the long driveway that runs next to the Golden Cemetery. All other ways into the parking lot will be for exiting only. Please wait along this driveway until it is time to enter the parking lot.


3. We will direct your car to a Eucharistic Minister placed around the parking lot (or at the Church entrance when the weather requires). Please wait your turn in your car, then pull-up. Anyone who is able and desires to receive Holy Communion will then exit the vehicle. This should be the only time you exit your vehicle.


4. When receiving Holy Communion, please remove any gloves you are wearing. Please keep your mask on until the Host is placed in your hand, then step to the side, pull down your mask, and consume the Host. Holy Communion will only be distributed under the species of bread and in the hand per the decree from Archbishop Aquila.


5. Once you have received, please return to your vehicle. If you would like a moment to pray, please follow instructions to exit the main parking lot and park in the lower (Ed Center) parking lot.


6. Please follow any directions given to control the flow of traffic, be aware of other cars as you leave, and courteously take turns.

We also bring Holy Communion outside after our Sunday Masses (held at 8:00 am, 10:00 am, and noon) and our Daily Masses (noon Monday-Friday) to distribute to the faithful. Since these times generally have less people, we ask that you come line-up in your cars near the main doors. Please pull-up once the car in front of you receives and pulls away, then park, and exit your vehicle so the minister can stay under the roof in case of wind or snow/rain. Please note that Daily Masses generally run about 25-35 minutes.
