Interested in Becoming Catholic? The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults is the process through which unbaptized adults and older children are formed in the instruction and practices of the sacraments and the teachings of Jesus Christ and are initiated into the Catholic Church. This process is marked by various rites and rituals that explain in a special way the meaning and richness of our faith. Therefore I kindly ask you to help us by inviting and welcoming into our parish family all those family members or friends who want to learn and profess our Catholic faith. All adults who want to be baptized, confirmed, or receive first communion at the Easter Vigil of this year, 2021. Please contact Fr. Carlos at fathercarlosruiz@gmail.com or at 978-537-5293, for more information.

Masses will be held at  4pm, 6pm and 8pm Christmas Eve and 8am on Christmas Day.   Midnight Mass will not be celebrated since Governor Baker has advised that, for the immediate future, "all residents of Massachusetts are advised to stay home between the hours of 10 pm and 5 am” Masses should not be scheduled after 9:00 pm on Christmas Eve, hence no Midnight Mass.

Due to the current COVID-19 situation, we will not be doing our traditional, “Giving Tree” this Christmas Season, of collecting gifts. Instead of donating gifts, we are requesting that you donate Gift Cards (of any amount), for the children in our local area in need of our support. Gift Cards from Kohl’s, Target & Walmart would be greatly appreciated. We will be collecting Gift Cards from November 28 thru December 13. Please place your gift card in an envelope with the store name and amount on the front of the envelope. Gift cards may be placed in the basket labeled “Gift Cards, dropped at the rectory or placed in the mail to the Parish. Thank you again for your continued kindness, support and generosity! St. Matthew 25 Society
