BAZAAR: This year, our Annual Bazaar has been canceled, the money we raise at this event usually pays for the expense of our property insurance. Therefore, WE NEED YOUR HELP!! Since we won’t have our usual Live Auction, games, etc, for income, we ask that you please consider what you might have spent in those areas and spend a similar amount on purchasing raffle tickets. We thank each and every one of you for always stepping it up and supporting this Parish. You may make your donations ONLINE at www.sscmchurch.org . (Many thanks to 17 generous donations so far totaling $2,000.00 to cover the 2^nd prize and $2745.00 toward covering the mower)
Raffle tickets (limited amount available) and Meal tickets are available at the Parish Office or email sscmchurch@gmail.com  We need your help, please pick up a packet of tickets to sell.
 

Meal tickets $10 each will be available at all Masses and at the Parish Office if you would like to buy some or help sell. You may pay online however you must call the office to give mailing or pick up instructions.
 

Due to Covid19 restrictions, the Parish Bazaar will be a takeout (only) meal and a raffle. You will need to purchase advance tickets for the meal. For more information about the changes to the September 6 celebration, please select here.

Bishop’s Guidelines on Public Mass

Bishop Vasquez has issued new instructions after the Governor's new orders concerning COVID19 protocals.
 
 Governor Abbott issued Executive Order GA-29 which goes into effect today (July 3rd) at 12:00 noon, ordering a state-wide face-covering requirement (with few exceptions).  Under the order, every person in Texas is required to wear a face covering over the nose and mouth when inside a commercial entity or other building or space open to the public, or when in an outdoor public space, wherever it is not feasible to maintain six feet of social distancing from another person not in the same household.

The requirement does not apply to individuals who:

• are under age 10;
• have a medical condition or disability that prevents wearing a face covering;
• are consuming food or drink, or are seated at a restaurant to eat or drink;
• are giving a speech for a broadcast or to an audience.

The Williamson County Museum is a rich source of history for this area including our parish. The following link has an interesting article and pictures of our past. We are very appreciative that the museum has made this resource available to us.
