As we wait for committed adorers to fill the schedule, we will be opening the Chapel soon with a Tabernacle, which keeps the Blessed Sacrament safe and secure.  
 

The Chapel will open on Saturday, August 15,  
the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.  

Hours will be 8 am - 8 pm daily. 
Some of the pews and chairs have been rearranged or removed to increase the space between adorers
 The current schedule may be viewed at:  Blessed Sacrament Chapel Schedule.  Please create an account if you don't already have one, and sign up for an hour if you are able. 
For more information, contact Tom at adoration@saintisidorechurch.org 

In the St. Isidore Hospitality Room below the church, you will have the opportunity to view an extensive collection of photographs and historical records presenting a sampling of ancient and modern Eucharistic Miracles that have taken place in various parts of the world.  All of the miracles in the exhibition are Church-approved.  The exhibition has been to more than 500 parishes in Italy and is currently traveling around the world.  Now it is coming to St. Isidore!  Plan to stop into the Hospitality Room after a weekend Mass until August 16, 2020.
Only 10 people at a time, masks worn, and social distancing must be observed.

 
We are so blessed to be able to worship God together in church once again!

Confessions are back to the regular time on Saturdays from 2:30 pm - 4:00 pm, and continue to be held in the Sacristy to allow for the appropriate Social Distance.  Please take precautions since Monsignor is in the high-risk category for the virus due to his age:   refrain from being near Monsignor if you are feeling ill, and consider wearing a mask when in the same room.
