    • APRIL 2021

      Happy Easter!  Last weekend we welcomed 12 adults into the Church.  This weekend we welcome two young persons at the 6pm Mass.  As well this weekend those preparing for Confirmation in May will be on Retreat.  So lets keep them in prayer.
      COVID-- on May 1 the counties take over the COVID remediation efforts.  Washoe county has said that if we can reach 50% vaccination, they will reduce the 6' distance to 3'; if we can reach 75% they will remove all distance requirements.  So, if we want to have more seating in the church and to be able to gather, consider getting your vaccine.  In addition, the long term effects of COVID are not nice; so get your vaccine and be of service to the community.
      In a message to follow, there will be a letter from Bishop Calvo about an assembly bill that would make physician Assisted suicide legal.  This measure was defeated in the last assembly, but has been re-introduced.  As Catholics we value life, from a natural beginning to a natural end.  The deliberate taking of life violates that dignity.  On the surface we may say we are relieving the suffering of the person, but that the deeper reality is that it says that person has no more value.  Please follow through on the Call to Action, contact the assembly person and tell them to vote against this bill.
      Finally, LECTORS and EM's, we need to update our lists.  IF you have been a lector or EM for a while, and either feel that you no longer wish to do this, or want to step aside, let Sandy know ASAP.  This is a good time to consider.  

    • Our Lady of the Snows Protocols (Updated)

      • Our seating capacity is remains at 82 non household individuals.  The state of Nevada limits are up to 50% of the fire code capacity, but still with 6’ distancing.  It is this 6’ distance that determines the 82.  We can take up to 110 persons when households seat together.
      • All persons coming to mass or gatherings must wear their facemasks and sign in; for weekend masses sign in online
      • Entry is through the East Main Doors
      • Ushers will assist people in signing in and also with seating to ensure we maintain our distances
      • No collection is taken, but baskets are placed at the entrances for donations
      • At the end of mass, all doors are open and we ask that people not congregate within the church or at the door
      • After each mass the pews are sprayed down with disinfectant.
      • Wednesday masses are designated as the previous “Sunday” mass, unless liturgically that Wednesday mass must be celebrated as such
      • Generally, all weekday masses are able to be viewed via social media; the Sunday 10 a.m. mass is live-streamed
      • Funerals, Weddings, Baptisms are able to be celebrated in accord with the above restrictions

      Faith Sharing - this is a form of prayer that is old, but new. Faith sharing is about “me” speaking to how a particular scripture reading, prayer, belief, etc., has impacted “me” within a group, and then listening to others do the same. It helps us to make concrete our faith in our lives; it also helps us to hear this in the other, and come to a deeper understanding of the other. When this is practiced well it becomes a powerful tool to unite people and to open all to a deeper faith. We will see more of these groups being formed in our future as we as a parish work to strengthen our faith and our community.

      Faith in Action - Our Faith grows when we take a risk to be challenged in what we think we know and believe. The risk as well can be to change up our patterns, meet new people. Our Young Adult Book Club got off to a great start, because of those willing to take the risk. New people are met, understanding grows … what more??
