Saint Patrick

You will notice on the right side of this page (or keep scrolling if on mobile) are sign-ups for the weekend Masses in Amboy. Last Sunday we were very close to reaching capacity as things are taped off for distancing. Having a better way of signing people up will hopefully help prevent that from happening again. Because of the limited space, while we have to distance, it is going to become more difficult to accommodate those not already signed up. If you are unsure of using this you can still call the office and someone can put your information in for you.

• Confessions have been moved to Tuesday. The sacrament is now offered on Tuesdays from 5:30 to 6:30 and on Saturdays from 3:00 to 3:45. 

• Daily Masses (Tuesday - Friday) are being celebrated at St. Patrick Church at 8 a.m.

• We need more volunteers to assist in the cleaning and ushering of people, especially for the weekends. Please call the parish office if you can assist us. 

• All Catholics within the Diocese of Rockford are still dispensed from the obligation of attending Mass on Sundays and holy days of obligation (per canons 85 and 87 in the code of canon law of 1983).

• St. Patrick Church (Amboy) will continue to remain open during the day, as usual, for private prayer. The Parish Office will be open until 12:30 Mon - Fri. You will have to knock or call so someone can let you in. A mask must be worn at all times. 

• For more assistance from the parish staff, please email the parish staff or call (815) 857-2315 or (815) 857-2670.
