St. Jude Church

Over the next few weeks you will be hearing about the upcoming "Together, we can make a difference! program.  This effort is  very important as we move forward with the mission and vision of our church.  We, as a parish family, have changed so many lives in our community!  In order to continue our mission and ministries, we encourage all parishioners to spend time in prayer and discussion with your family reflecting on the work that we do.

MISSION STATEMENT

St. Jude Church is a Catholic institution in the diocese of Cleveland that participates in the wider mission of the Roman Catholic Church 

• By proclaiming faith in Jesus Christ and His teaching as authentically preserved by the Tradition of the Catholic Church, of which He is the founder.
• By celebrating joyfully the Sacraments as channels of grace that nurture the spiritual life of the believers.
• By building a compassionate faith community where all are included because all are persons loved by God.
• By welcoming newcomers who are searching for meaning in life, and seek spirituality as an answer to their quest.
• By educating children of primary and intermediate levels through fine academics and a solid catechesis that is respectful of the teaching of the Catholic Church.
• By reaching out to those in need through various forms of service.

Endorsed by the Pastoral Council on the 8^th day of August 2020

Due to the continuing pandemic, Mass will look very different for a while.  Above is the list of changes that we have implemented based on the guidelines put forth by the Diocese.  Please understand that we do not want to offend anyone or make attending Mass unduly difficult, but we need to take reasonable precautions to keep everyone safe.  We will continue to live stream Mass on the Elyria Catholic Cluster Facebook page at 4:30 p.m.

The Bishops of Ohio have continued dispensation from the Sunday obligation for the time being.

We are in need of volunteers to help clean/sanitize the church and restrooms after each Mass as required by the Bishops and the State of Ohio.  If you are willing to stay after Mass for a few minutes to help it would be greatly appreciated.
