SPECIAL NOTICE

Dear Parishioners,
We just received notification from Archbishop Rodi with the following information:
Our world, our nation, and our communities are coping with the covid-19 pandemic. All of us are called to be concerned for our personal welfare and that of our neighbors. This will entail sacrifice. I ask that we pray for our own protection and the healing of those who suffer from ill health. It is also important that we cooperate with civil and health authorities.
Therefore, effective Wednesday, March 18, the following steps are to be taken at St. Columba Parish (Archdiocese of Mobile):
*All daily and Sunday Masses are cancelled effective immediately. The Church (not Chapel) will remain open each day for individuals who may wish to pray privately. The parish office will remain open with a skeleton staff.
*These norms are effective through and including Palm Sunday, April 5, 2020 but may be extended depending upon future developments.
For more information visit mobarch.org and/or contact our office at 334-793-5802.

RECLAIMING THE LORD'S DAY IN 2020
"This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad. "
Psalm 118:24Our Culture tempts us with constant distractions. The Church, however, call us to rediscover Sundays--to slow down and observe an ancient sabbath day of rest. Our hearts yearn for rest, relaxation and time off from time itself. Remember, the time we offer to Christ is never lost. It is not wasted; it is time well spent. It is time gained, when relationships are made deeper and our entire lives are made more genuinely human.
The Lord's Day:Reflection on Dies Domini, the Apostolic Letter of Pope John Paul II,
