The priests of Nativity sent a pastoral letter to all households to assure them of their prayers and support, update them on the state of operations, and inform them on how to stay connected and make the most of this time.

As a sign of unity, Archbishop Hebda asks that all of us — especially students — to pray the “Litany in Time of Need” each day at 11:00 AM for protection and help.

Our pastor, Fr. Patrick Hipwell, explains the difficult decision to suspend public Masses and Confessions and offers other updates on the parish's coronavirus response plan.

Adoration has been moved to the main church and will be restricted to 9am-10pm Sunday-Friday and 9am-4pm on Saturday. 

Following Archdiocesan directives, there will be no public Masses at Nativity after Wednesday, 3/18 for at least two weeks. We have also suspended Confessions.

In the interest of the safety of our penitents and priests alike, we have suspended Confessions, effective immediately.

The 8:15am daily Mass will be celebrated downstairs to Steiner Hall to accommodate the construction work in the main church sanctuary.

Due to increased concerns about the spread of the Coronavirus, we will be indefinitely suspending the sign of peace at all Masses.
