Prayer to Saint Roch
(The Patron Saint for the
Epidemic Diseases)

 O Blessed St Roch,
Patron of the sick, Have pity on those
Who lie upon a bed of suffering.
Your power was so great
When you were in this world,
That by the sign of the Cross,
Many were healed of their diseases.
Now that you are in heaven,
Your power is not less. Offer, then, to God
Our sighs and tears.
And obtain for us that health we seek
Through Christ Our Lord      Amen.

Novena Prayer for Protection

Adapted from the prayer of Pope Francis 11036A 3/20 The ancient fresco of Madonna del Soccorso (Our Lady of Help) in St. Peter’s Basilica was restored with the support of the Knights of Columbus to mark the Year of Faith (2012-2013). KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS

O Mary, you always brighten our path as a sign of salvation and of hope. We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick, who, at the Cross, took part in Jesus’ pain while remaining steadfast in faith. O loving Mother, you know what we need, and we are confident you will provide for us as at Cana in Galilee. Intercede for us with your Son Jesus, the Divine Physician, for those who have fallen ill, for those who are vulnerable, and for those who have died. Intercede also for those charged with protecting the health and safety of others and for those who are tending to the sick and seeking a cure. Help us, O Mother of Divine Love, to conform to the will of the Father and to do as we are told by Jesus, who took upon himself our sufferings and carried our sorrows, so as to lead us, through the Cross, to the glory of the Resurrection. Amen. Under thy protection we seek refuge, O Holy Mother of God. In our needs, despise not our petitions, but deliver us always from all dangers, O glorious and blessed Virgin.  Amen.

REOPENING OUR CHURCHES 

I am so delighted to share with you the information I received from the chancery office of the Archdiocese of New York.
 

• As the city is prepared to reopen on Monday, June 22, allowing for Phase II, our parish office will be opened at 9:00 am on Monday, June 22.

• Starting from Monday, June 22, we resume the weekday Masses, baptisms, weddings and funerals at 25% of the capacity of the church provided that physical distancing and other guidelines are followed.

• All precautions must be taken (wearing of masks, maintaining a six-foot distance, no physical contact except for communion, frequent washing of hands, and sanitizing surfaces).

• In addition, Sunday Mass with supervised attendance will begin on June 28 weekend. 

• Saturday noon masses at St. Adalbert starting from next Saturday 27, 2020 will be in the CHURCH (NOT IN THE RECTORY CHAPEL).

Those who are at a greater risk of COVID-19 (those older than 65 or who have underlying health conditions) are cautioned not to come to church for Mass. You may join us only when you feel safe and comfortable to do so.
 
His Eminence has granted dispensation from an obligation to attend Sunday Mass at this time.
 
As an alternative, Mass may we viewed on line or on TV, and the act of spiritual communion may be used instead of receiving the Eucharist.

An Act of Spiritual Communion, which is a source of grace
can be said during communion when one cannot receive Jesus
in sacramental Communion, or attend Mass. 

Spiritual Communion Prayer

My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things and I desire to receive you in my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally,
Come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you as if you were already there
And unite myself wholly to you. 
Never permit me to be separated from you.    Amen.
