Christmas Gratitude

Blue Christmas Tree My sincere thanks to all those individuals who helped make our Christmas Liturgies such holy and meaningful experiences for the parish: The Worship Choir, Children’s Christmas Choir, Musicians, Lectors, Eucharistic Ministers, and Greeters. Your participation reflected many blessings and gifts from God, and I thank you for sharing those gifts with your parish family. Thank you also to the Decorating Committee for their beautiful work this season and to the Men’s Prayer Group for putting up our outside decorations. Lastly, many thanks to all the ministries and parishioners who worked so hard on our Advent programs and activities. We enjoyed a wonderful Advent season together as a parish family!

With gratitude, Father Sas

Please Consider Joining the ST. JOHN FISHER PRAYER LINE

All it takes is a commitment of one week, on a rotating basis, to have your name and phone number published in our bulletin as one of two contact people to receive special prayer requests. Then, you notify the other members of the prayer line (by e-mail) of the special prayer request. It’s easy, extremely satisfying, and it does so much good! Please contact the Parish Office to add your name to this very important and rewarding ministry.

Special Intention Mass Cards

Mass Card A Healing Prayer

Please remember to schedule Masses you would like intended for deceased loved ones, for specific times, as soon as possible. Mass cards are also available for Masses that are not for the deceased - they are for Masses that will be offered for a special intention, such as birthdays, wedding anniversaries, dealing with illiness, requests for healing, or any special needs. Please feel free to e-mail, call, or stop by the Parish Office with your request.

Sponsor Certificates, Marriages & Baptisms

Sponsor Certificates: A sponsor certificate for Baptism or Confirmation will be provided to current, active parishioners who have been registered with St. John Fisher for a minimum of six months. A Form may be downloaded (click here) or picked up at the parish office, and all applicants must meet with Father to have form signed and sealed after Mass or by appointment.

The Hospital Doesn't Tell Us You're There!

Because of HIPAA regulations, pastors and deacons are not given access to information about parishioners who are in the hospital. Please be sure to contact the parish office if you would like Father Sas, Deacon John, or a Eucharistic Minister to visit you or a loved one who is hospitalized.

Please include the patient's given name, hospital name, and dates of anticipated stay. In case of an emergency, please call Father Sas or Deacon John using the numbers on the front cover of the bulletin. Our pastoral staff is also happy to visit those who are homebound.
