Attention Indiana Catholics: IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT.

The following is a message from the bishops of Indiana:

“While commending our pastors and pastoral life coordinators who have gone to great lengths to assure safe worship spaces in our churches, due to the increase in the COVID-19 cases in our state, the Indiana bishops have decided to extend the dispensation from the obligation of Sunday Mass attendance beyond August 15 until November 1, 2020, unless further developments determine otherwise.”

NOTE: This does NOT mean that you are prohibited from attending Mass. It only means that the OBLIGATION to attend has been suspended. There are people at our Catholic Churches in Indiana at Mass every day as well as on Sundays. At St. Stanislaus Kostka Parish as with all Diocese of Fort Wayne – South Bend parishes, masks and social distancing are required. St. Stan’s also strongly recommends that everyone use the hand sanitizer provided at the entrances to the church.

The Annual Bishop’s Appeal is held in the fall of each year to help raise funds for diocesan needs such as education, charities, evangelization and pastoral assistance. For every dollar that we go over our goal that money comes back to St. Stanislaus Kostka Parish so that we can address our necessary improvements. Read all about what the Bishops Appeal supports in FW-SB. 

Our mandatory goal is $18,074.76. When we go over our goal, we plan to spend our additional money on the repair of the large stain glass window in the church. 

I ask you to please be generous and let us continue to pray and help our diocese and our beloved parish.

Pastor
