Information for Opening our Churches for Public Masses
As we look forward to opening our Churches to the public, the following guidelines will be implemented to help keep us all safe.
We will be opening at limited capacity so all those attending must sign up for the Mass they wish to attend either online or by phone. More information will be coming soon.
Everyone should wear a mask unless they are unable to due to a medical condition
Everyone must practice “social distancing” - standing/sitting 6 feet apart
If you are not feeling well, please stay at home
Sunday Masses will continue to live stream at 10am from St. Joseph Church on our website.
The dispensation from the Sunday Mass obligation will continue for the foreseeable future. Cardinal Seán strongly encourages people in vulnerable populations, especially the elderly and those with complicating physical conditions, to continue to watch Mass from their homes, on their parish’s social media or on CatholicTV.
For Daily Masses, please consider: Catholic TV 9:30am, 12:30pm (Mass with Pope Francis) & 7pm Comcast channel 268,Verizon channel 296 or www.CatholicTV.org
EWTN - 8am, 12noon & 7pm Comcast channel 056 or 238,Verizon channel 285 or www.EWTN.com
Until we resume public Masses, Churches will be open
for those who wish to pray according to the following schedule:
Sundays, 9am - 12noon at St. Francis of Assisi
Monday - Saturday, 3pm - 6pm at St. Francis of Assisi Church
Confessions - Saturdays, 3pm - 4pm at both churches
TO ENTER, PLEASE USE HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE DOOR ONLY
Please practice good hygiene - wash hands frequently, do not shake hands, sneeze/cough into tissue or your elbow, practice "social distancing" (keep 6 feet apart). For your safety, doorknobs and surfaces are sanitized regularly.
Parish Office - Our par ish office hours are 9am-12noon Monday - Friday. The office will not be open to in-person visitors but we encourage par ishioners to contact us by phone or email and visit our website www.MedfordCollaborative.org and Facebook pages - @StFrancisMedford and @SaintJosephMedford - for updates.

“90-Days Now - For Your Parish”
“90 Days Now – For Your Parish” was inspired by
the desire to take care of one another during the unprecedented challenges of COVID-19 and the inability to join together at local Catholic churches
for Masses. Please consider making a small daily commitment to “90 Days Now - For Your Parish” so that we can continue to pay our utilities
and other bills during this challenging time.
To donate, please visit the Archdiocese of Boston’s website at www.bostoncatholic.org and click on the
“DONATE” button at the top of the page. Thank you!

St. Joseph Teacher & Staff Appreciation Day! On Thursday, May 14, St. Joseph School families held a parade to show their appreciation for St. Joseph teachers and staff. It was so great to see our students and families! Thank you to all who participated!
Inspiring Hope Campaign Update
After a successful bid process conducted earlier this Spring, a contractor has been chosen and work is scheduled to start on the St. Joseph Parish Center in the beginning of June 2020. This project is expected to be completed in September 2020. After the St. Joseph Parish Center is completed, we will begin the bid process for the St. Francis of Assisi Parish Church Bathroom project. We are grateful to all the parishioners who made pledges to the Inspiring Hope campaigns conducted in our parishes which allow us to complete these important projects!
