PASTORAL LETTER FROM FATHER LICH
Dear parishioners of Saint Martha and Infant Jesus of Prague.
With the ever-growing concerns regarding the coronavirus, world-wide and at home, please allow me to remind you of the words of St. Paul the Apostle to Timothy: “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7)
The coronavirus outbreak has led to public gatherings being canceled across the country. Last weekend, many people had already begun staying home, so none of our weekend masses had more than 60 people in them. Archbishop Aymond has canceled all masses and Lenten devotions throughout the Archdiocese of New Orleans for this weekend and the following weekend.
Even though our church is closed to all Eucharistic celebrations (masses), please remember that Sunday masses are broadcast live from Saint Louis Cathedral on WLAE-TV at 11:00 a.m. and livestreamed at TheDailyMass.com.
We are here at Saint Martha and Infant Jesus of Prague and will continue to be available to you, our faithful. The Church office will remain opened from Monday through Friday. I myself, our Deacons, parish staff and many lay ministers are available for your pastoral care. We are continuing with the publication of our church bulletins which will be available on our parish website and at the main entrance door of our church. Your assigned mass intentions will be remembered in my private offering of the mass.
For those of you who wish to continue your financial support to our church parish, please mail or bring your contribution envelopes to the church office. Online giving options will be available in the near future.
Please continue to pray for God to aid scientists in discovering a vaccine quickly. Please also pray for the members of the church that we will not allow the coronavirus to quarantine our faith. Archbishop Aymond is calling for a united Day of Prayer and Fasting on next Friday, March 27, 2020.
Be assured of my daily prayers. God is faithful and, in His way, we will come to experience healing and peace.
Many blessings,
Fr. Lich Nguyen
