Important Parking Notice: Space in the small lot is limited during construction. Parish staff (including the pastor himself) have been asked to park in the main lot during regular office hours. Two employee spots are needed for Father Hoa and Sister Monica. The other three have been opened up. However, in the evening (after 5 pm) all Staff Parking is reserved for the clergy and parish staff. The few parking spots (including the area at the front door of the office) are to be reserved for those who have trouble with mobility. All other individuals attending evening meetings are asked to park in the Main Church Lot. We apologize for the inconvenience.

I have been made aware that there is someone sending an email out saying that I need help. PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL!!! It is a SCAM. I do not need help (other than headache medicine for dealing with this). If you receive an email supposedly from me, please ignore it or call the parish office to let us know. Thank you! Sincerely, Father Carroll

(I posted this a little earlier on Facebook) Please be advised while I am maintaining our confession schedule (see below on the Christmas Schedule) that I am battling a severe sinus infection and have been placed on an antibiotic. In preparation for the next couple days I will be trying to get plenty of rest in between to help me get ready for the 4th Sunday of Advent/Christmas Season. Please pray for me and all those who are struggling with any type of illness. Thank you and I look forward to seeing everyone this weekend. Fr. C.

Millions of persons were affected by this unprecedented catastrophic weather event. Please pray for the families that have lost loved ones and all who have lost homes and businesses along with their sense of peace and normalcy. Your prayerful and financial support is urgently needed. Please give generously.

Dear Brothers and Sisters, Next Sunday September 3rd is the annual "What the Food Truck" event in Penn Park across the street from the Church. This event brings a lot of people to York. It will run from 11 am - 6 pm. As in past years we will be allowing visitors to park in our lot from after the 10:45 am Mass till 6 pm. Since the event will run till 6 pm we will be delaying our Sunday Evening Mass till 6 pm. The lots start clearing out a little before 6, so I feel confident starting Mass at that time. There will be NO SUNDAY EVENING CONFESSIONS! However, for those who have difficultly walking I do encourage you to attend either Saturday Evening or Sunday morning at 8 am. For those wishing to attend the 10:45 am Mass we strongly encourage you to consider arriving early, perhaps even as early as 10 am (if not before). We will need assistance at the entrances of our main lot (College Avenue and Beaver) to make sure we reserve that lot for our parishioners (especially our parishioners who have difficulty walking distances).

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! Bishop Ronald Gainer has announced that a special collection will be held this weekend (September 2 & 3) in all parishes of the Diocese of Harrisburg for Hurricane Harvey Relief efforts. This is a part of the U.S. Catholic Bishops emergency collection to assist the millions of persons affected by this unprecedented catastrophic weather event. Since there is no envelope for this special collection. There will be two collections taken up at all the Masses this weekend. The second collection will be taken up right after the first. Please remember to keep those whose lives have been impacted by this historic storm. Thank you for your generosity and prayers! For those who might be away this weekend and still would like to contribute please visit....www.HbgDiocese.org/donate
