You have probably noticed that there are no Votive Candles currently available in the church. Current health restrictions prevent people from gathering in front of the votive stands, and from sharing the wooden tapers used to light the candles. If you would like to have a candle lit in the church, please contact the parish office (653-6830 or holyredeemersj@gmail.com) and a member of our staff would be happy to light a candle on your behalf. The suggested donation for each candle is $4, and money can be placed in the collection basket.

Cancellations
Due to COVID-19, and current health guidelines, the Martha Guild has decided that hosting certain events over the next couple of months would not be safe for either Martha Guild members or those attending. As a result, the following events have been cancelled:
September 30 – Harvest Bingo
October 18 – Parish Fun Day
November 25 – Christmas Cash Bingo
Religious Education
Out of an abundance of caution, we have decided to wait until November to restart Religious Education classes. We hope that this will reduce the stress on parents already dealing with the reopening of schools. The delayed start should also give us additional time to prepare for the necessary changes required to keep everyone safe.
As soon as plans are finalized, we will share them with parents. Registration for classes will be completed online this year, and we expect to have the form available on our website within the next week.
We require a baptism certificate for every child registered in our program. We encourage parents to contact the church that your children were baptized in to request a copy of that certificate.
Sunday Missals
Reminder: Due to COVID-19 we will NOT be selling 2020-2021 Sunday Missals in the church this year. We have ordered a LIMITED number of copies which will be available in the fall. The cost remains at $5 per copy, which will need to be paid in advance. To reserve your copy, please use the form located HERE. If you know someone without internet access who uses an annual missal, please encourage them to call the parish office (653-6830) soon. Once our initial order is spoken for, we will not be ordering additional copies.
