Baptisms are held on Saturday mornings or any Sunday at or after 10:00 am Mass. Please schedule Baptisms by calling the Parish Office. Our Baptism Class for parents (and Godparents, if possible) is held the second Friday of January, March, May, July, September, and November at 7:00PM at the Parish Center. You must register with the Parish Office to attend.
The Sacrament of Penance is celebrated each Tuesday, 6:30-7:30pm, or Saturday at 3:30 PM, or by appointment. Communal Reconciliation services are usually held during the seasons of Advent and Lent.
Couples who are planning their marriage are asked to contact the pastor no later than six months in advance of the wedding to make the necessary arrangements. Marriage preparation for engaged couples includes several sessions with the pastor and attendance at one of the required diocesan programs for engaged couples.
Communal anointing of the sick takes place twice a year during the Sunday liturgy and is announced ahead of time. If anyone in your family is ill and in need of this sacrament, please call the Parish Office, 485-2285, to make the necessary arrangements.
Preparation for the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Eucharist, and Confirmation is based on readiness, not grade or age, and is part of the Religious Education Program. For more information please contact Amy Comcowich at 508-229-2429 or email acomcowich@stmatthewsb.org.
