Bishop Brennan'sCovid-19 Message
Dear Friends,
Recent days have seen a rise in the number of reported cases of the COVID-19 coronavirus and new guidance regarding the wearing of masks. I want primarily to encourage all those who are eligible and medically able to obtain the vaccine. I also encourage you to monitor and evaluate the data and guidance and to take appropriate measures in accord with the advice of your physician. We will provide masks and hand sanitizer where possible.
I remind you that those whose health is compromised and those who have legitimate concerns for their own health or that of their family are exempt from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass. Anyone who is not feeling well or showing even mild symptoms of what could be the coronavirus should remain at home.
We continue to pray for all those who are suffering with this illness, those who have died and those who mourn.
Yours sincerely in Christ,
+Robert J. Brennan

Obligation to Observe Sunday Mass Reinstated:How St. John is Adjusting
The Sunday obligation has been reinstated and the State of Ohio has lifted the social distance and mask restrictions. With this in mind, St. John has also made changes to our seating so that parishioners and guests can enjoy being back in church safely.
While most of our pews have been opened, we have kept a few pews roped off to allow for social distancing. These pews can be found in the front of the church and on the St. Joseph side of the church.
Masks are no longer required, but you are more than welcome to wear them if that makes you comfortable.
Overflow will continue to be provided, as needed, in the Church Hall.
For those with health issues, in nursing homes, or shut-ins, we will continue to live-stream the 10 a.m. Sunday Mass on our Facebook page (St John Logan Ohio).
As Fr. Steve said, "Please remember that we are called to care for each other and make wise decisions on what is the current knowledge."

Prayer to St. Joseph(Year of St. Joseph)
To you, O blessed Joseph, do we come in our afflictions, and having implored the help of your most holy Spouse, we confidently invoke your patronage also.
Through that charity which bound you to the Immaculate Virgin Mother of God and through the paternal love with which you embraced the Child Jesus, we humbly beg you graciously to regard the inheritance which Jesus Christ was purchased by his Blood, and with your power and strength to aid us in our necessities.
O most watchful guardian of the Holy Family, defend the chosen children of Jesus Christ; O most loving father, ward off from us every contagion of error and corrupting influence; O our most mighty protector, be kind to us and from heaven assist us in our struggle with the power of darkeness.
As once you rescued the Child Jesus from deadly peril, so now protect God's Holy Church from the snares of the enemy and from all adversity; shield, too, each one of us by your constant protection, so that, supported by your example and your aid, we may be able to live piously, to die in holiness, and to obtain eternal happiness in heaven. Amen.
