St. Paul Catholic Church, Richmond, VA

Welcome To Saint Paul's Catholic Church

Upcoming Events:

On September 19^th, parents of high school students are asked to attend a brief meeting to discuss Religious Education classes for youth in grades 9-12. The meetings will be held after both the 8:30 AM and 11:00 AM Masses and will meet in the church.

Fr. Begley is re-establishing St. Paul's Parish Council, beginning with four new members. Fr. Jim is requesting that parishioners nominate themselves or fellow parishioners who they believe would further the Council’s ministry and be effective and collaborative Council members. The term of office for Council members is three years, and the time commitment is modest. If you would like to nominate a parishioner to serve, please email [email protected] with the name of the parishioner you are nominating. Nominations will be open until October 10^th.

A note from our Pastor:

CDC and the Virginia Department of Health (VDH) have revised guidance involving the wearing of masks in certain “public indoor settings”. Within the diocese, public indoor settings include public Mass, but not parish offices, schools, or the Pastoral Center which are considered private settings.

Per the Virginia Department of Health:

o Unvaccinated or not fully vaccinated individuals should wear masks in public indoor settings.

o Fully vaccinated individuals do not need to wear a mask; however, masks should be worn in indoor settings in areas of substantial and high transmission.

o Any person not wearing a mask shall not be required to produce documentation that they are vaccinated or that they have an underlying medical condition.

Effective August 11, 2021

Thank you for making these adjustments.

In Christ,

Fr. Jim Begley

Pastor
