Welcome
This Weekend’s Weather Advisory
Due to the severe weather predicted for this weekend, we will put into effect our Winter Storm Policy. As blizzard conditions are forecast for Saturday, there will be NO Saturday Vigil Mass in any and all of our three churches.
Since 24 inches or more of snow with blizzard conditions are expected in our area and given the uncertainty of our ability to safely and efficiently clear the snow, we will use only one of our church buildings for Sunday Mass. Mass will be celebrated at 9:00 a.m. on Sunday morning at Saint Thomas More Church.
We will post Sunday Mass on The Catholic Community of Somerset & Swansea Facebook page.
