Sacraments


Baptism
The Sacrament of Baptism is celebrated monthly at a group baptism following the 11:30 am Mass on the first Sunday of each month. Baptisms can also be celebrated at select weekend liturgies, excluding the 7:30a.m. Mass– please call Deborah Kaminski at the parish office for more information. Baptisms should be scheduled at least six weeks in advance.
Reconciliation
The Sacrament of Reconciliation or Confession is available every Saturday from 4:00 – 4:30 p.m., prior to the 5:00 p.m. Mass. Arrangements can be made for any other time by calling the parish office.
Marriage
Anyone interested in finding out more about marriage at Our Lady of Grace is encouraged to call the parish office at least six months in advance. The preparation of couples for their permanent committment to one another includes participation in a Marriage Preparation Program. A wedding brochure with guidelines for Our Lady of Grace Chruch can be obtained from the parish office.
Care of the Ill
Our parish gladly ministers to the hopitalized and homebound parishioners through visits and Communion calls by a priest, Pastoral Care Minister, or Eucharistic Minister. Please inform us when family members require ministry. Also, any sick friends or relatives can be added to the General Intercessions to be prayed for at our weekend liturgies.
