IMPORTANT UPDATE

   Due to an increased number of COVID cases in the state, the maximum number of persons allowed at any given mass has returned to 50 (rather than 100). Each church does now have an overflow room with Mass live on a large screen. Communion will be taken to those in the overflow room at the same time as it is being offered in church.
 

RESERVING SEATS FOR MASSES

   Mass reservations continue to be taken over the phone. Reservations must be called in by Friday at 12 Noon to ensure a seat at Mass. Without a reservation, you may still come early to any Mass to see if there are available seats. If so, attendance will be allowed. Although the maximum number of persons allowed at any given mass is 50, each church now has an over-flow room with Mass live on a large screen. Communion will be taken to those in the over-flow room at the same time as it is being offered in church.

For those who have made reservations, please arrive at least five minutes before Mass begins; otherwise, there is a possibility that the reservation will be given to someone on the “waiting list”.

Social distancing and mask-wearing remain in effect.

Call 207-646-5605 to reserve seats for St. Mary in Wells (4 PM Sat., 9 &11 AM Sun., & 8 AM on weekdays), and 207-985-6252 for St. Martha in Kennebunk (4 PM Sat., 8 &10 AM Sun., & 9 AM on weekdays).

If leaving a message, please indicate the church and the Mass day/time, as well as your phone number. You will receive a confirmation return phone call if your seat has been successfully reserved.
 

Nationwide
Prayer Vigil for Life
on January 28-29

    Catholics across the country are encouraged to observe the Nationwide Prayer Vigil for Life on Thursday, January 28, and Friday, January 29, marking the 48th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton decisions legalizing abortion through nine months of pregnancy. Since those decisions, over 60 million abortions have been performed legally in the United States. The vigil will begin with a live rosary and Mass, broadcast from the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C., at 8 PM on EWTN-TV and the Basilica’s website (www.nationalshrine.org). After the Mass and throughout the night, holy hours led by bishops from various dioceses around the country will be broadcast on the USCCB’s website (www.usccb.org). The vigil concludes at 8 AM on Friday with a Mass celebrated by Archbishop William Lori of Baltimore on EWTN-TV and the Basilica’s website. For more information, con-tact Chieko Noguchi or Miguel Guilarte at (202) 541-3200.
