Masses and Church Activities Cancelled due to COVID-19
With the installation of Ohio's "stay-at-home" policy, the Catholic Bishops of Ohio also made the decision to suspend all publicly celebrated Masses, Liturgies, and events. Click here for Bishop Brennan's Letter to the Faithful from March 13 and here for the Columbus Diocese COVID-19 Resources.
Virtual mass:
While we cannot attend Mass physically, Fr. Krile and Dcn. Robers have begun to live-stream and record Mass, Sunday thru Friday. Masses can be watched live on our Facebook page (St. John Logan Ohio) and later on our YouTube channel (Saint John Catholic Church).
Masses can also be viewed from other churches on EWTN, local cable channels (check your listings), or listened to on St. Gabriel Radio AM 820 from St. Joseph Cathedral.

Things You can do on Sundays
1. Spend time in prayer and read the day's Mass readings. Thank Our Lord and read the day's Mass readings. Thank Our Lord for all the times you've been able to go to Mass in your lifetime, and pray for those who don't have consistent access to the sacraments. Read the Mass readings for the day, and say your favorite prayers.
2. Make a Spiritual Communion: St. Thomas Aquinas defined Spiritual Communion as "an ardent desire to receive Jesus in the Holy Sacrament and a loving embrace as though we had already received Him. Here is a prayer by which you can make a Spiritual Communion: "My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen."
3. Bless yourself with Holy Water. When used reverently, Holy Water can help protect us from evil, cure illness, overcome temptation, and even remove temporal punishment for venial sins! Blessing ourselves with holy water at home and at Church is a wonderful habit to develop.
4. Try watching the Mass online or on TV. See more information below.
5. Remember to rest and enjoy true leisure. We must remember to rest and relax on the Lord's Day and avoid any unnecessary work. Enjoy the outdoors or play a game with your family, call a friend and catch up, or read a book outside!

Adoration Announcement:
While Adoration cannot be held in person on Friday, April 3, we will be live-streaming the Blessed Sacrament following the 9 a.m. Mass until 6 p.m.
Following the Mass, we will have an Exposition of the Eucharist before a short break as we move the Blessed Sacrament to the Rectory, where the live-stream will resume.
Those who regularly attend Adoration can do so by either logging onto Facebook for the live-stream or, if you are unable to access the stream, you can still fulfill your hour by praying during that time. -

Almighty and Everlasting God,
You have given the human race Jesus Christ our Savior as a model of humility.
He fulfilled Your Will by becoming Man
And giving his life on the Cross.

By following His example of suffering
And make us worhty to share in His Resurrection.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son.
Amen.
