A message to the Parishioners from Father Richard Beck.

The Mass Time Schedule will not be changing and as it stands today will remain permanent.

Our present plan is to open up St. Veronica's for the 4:30pm Saturday Vigil and the Sunday 9:45am Masses as well as Queen of Peace 5:30pm Saturday Vigil , Sunday 8:00am, 11:30am, starting the weekend of July 4/5.

Starting, Monday June 1, 2020, The Blessed Virgin Mary Queen of Peace Church will be open for daily Mass ONLY. Saturday Vigil and Sunday Masses will remain LiveStreaming ONLY.

Father Beck explains the change to yellow and what that means for the Parish.

Laura asks about if it is possible to do a penance service online and Jean asks if it's too late to start the Divine Mercy Novena (when it's supposed to start on a certain day in the Octave).

In Roman Catholic usage, when commonly called an ambry, it is traditionally in the sanctuary (as in, the altar area) of a church or in the Baptistery, and is used to store the oils used in sacraments: Oil of catechumens (indicated by the Latin letters O.C.), Oil of the Sick (O.I.), and Sacred Chrism (S.C.).

This year, due to the Coronavirus, many of the Easter triduum Masses and services are cancelled, including the veneration of the cross on Good Friday. So what do we do instead?

Father Beck addressed the parishioners from daily mass on Tuesday March 31st. Please watch this important video.

The following is a traditional prayer of spiritual communion that many saints have prayed over the years. It can be prayed if you find yourself at Mass unable to receive the Eucharist.

As directed by the Diocese of Scranton, there are to be no Parish Easter basket blessings on the premises of The Blessed Virgin Mary Queen of Peace & St. Veronica, Hawley, PA. Parishioners are encouraged to bless their food and use the following prayers.

As families are homebound, communities are coming together to make a positive impact. Driveways and sidewalks are being covered in chalk, spreading messages of positivity, thanking hospital staff and first responders, and encouraging others to stay home. Now it has been spotted at the Parish.
