Fr. Jim's Video Message & pre-Mass Parish Announcements
for Sunday, October 18, 2020
|
Number of People Permitted to Attend Mass
Increased to 250 as of October 1, 2020.
Dear Parishioners and Friends,
|
I am happy to share with you news from Bishop George Leo Thomas and the Diocese of Las Vegas regarding the opening of our worship spaces to a larger number of people. (See Bishop Thomas' letter)
As of October 1, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton parish can now have a maximum of 250 attendees at each Mass in the church. On the weekends, an additional 120 people can be seated in the parish hall where attendees will view the live-streamed Mass from the church and receive Communion.
It is important to point out that the only thing that has changed with this new mandate is the increase in the number of people permitted at each Mass. All existing protocols and safety measures will still be strictly enforced at all Masses. Those measures include:
· Reservations are required to attend Mass (instructions below).
· Doors open 30 minutes before each Mass.
· Attendees over 2 years of age are required to wear a face mask or face covering.
· Hands must be sanitized upon entering.
· Temperatures will be screened.
· Hospitality ministers will seat all guests in a socially distanced manner. Every other pew will remain empty. Only special seating requests due to health issues will be granted.
· There will be no Sign of Peace shared during Mass.
· There will be no collection basket passed during Mass. Offertory donations can be placed in the designated basket as you enter.
· Out of sincere respect and concern for everyone's health and safety, we ask that Holy Communion be reverently received in the hand.
Making Mass Reservations
We will continue to take Mass reservations one week at a time for weekend liturgies (Saturday Vigil and Sunday Masses) only. Reservations for the 4pm Vigil on Saturday, October 24 and the Sunday Masses on October 25 can be made beginning at 9:00 a.m. on Monday, October 19 by:
· Clicking the Mass Reservation link at the top of this page(the link will be activated at 9:00 a.m. on Monday, October 19.
· Calling the church office at 702-228-8311 no earlier than 9:00 a.m.
Please note, reservations for weekday Masses from Monday through Saturday are no longer needed at this time. Weekday Mass seating will be on a first come, first seated basis. (This is subject to change depending on attendance).
And please remember, 8:00 a.m. Mass on Wednesdays is reserved for the SEAS School students and is not open to the public at this time.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
Peace always,
|

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic School is fully accredited by the Western Catholic Educational Association (WCEA). Having completed our most recent WCEA school visit on March 7, 2018, we wish to share our "Report of Findings" with the entire parish and school community.
Click here to view the report.
Areas assessed include: involvement of shareholders, use of prior accreditation findings, assessment of the school’s Catholic identity, defining the school’s purpose, data analysis and use, acceptable progress by all students, curriculum and instruction, support for student spiritual and academic growth, resource management and development, and the capacity to implement and monitor an action plan.
At St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, we believe that continuing evaluation and improvement of the curriculum is essential to the development of an effective educational program that promotes a lifelong love of learning. The accreditation process is more than a stamp of approval or quality assurance. It is a collaborative results-oriented school improvement process that serves as the underpinning of an effective school.

We, the community of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Roman Catholic Church, are dedicated to continuing the mission of Christ by proclaiming the word of God, celebrating the sacraments, and exercising the ministry of charity. We strive to respond to the Lord’s call of discipleship by nurturing a sense of belonging among parishioners and providing opportunities for living out the Gospel while joyfully embracing life and spiritual transformation. This commitment is our baptismal call and manifest in worship, education, evangelization, stewardship, fellowship, and service as we desire to do God’s will under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, our patron saint, St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, and the teaching office of the Catholic Church.
Sacrament of Baptism
Baptisms for infants and children up to 7 years of age are celebrated on Sundays either during Mass or at 1:45pm. Parents and Godparents should attend the baptism class on the first Tuesday of the month at 6:30 pm in the Church.

A 6 month minimum time period is needed to complete the preparation required for the Sacrament of Matrimony. For more information, contact Pastoral Associate Helen Silva at hsilva@seaslv.org or 702-826-3347.

Mass Intentions may be requested by visiting the parish during office hours. The person requesting the intention may ask for a card that can be sent to notify a person that a Mass intention has been requested. The priest silently remembers the intention requested as he celebrates the Eucharist.
