Diocesan weather policy

Whenever a county/city within the Diocese of Toledo is placed under a Level 3 Snow Emergency, during which all roadways are closed to non-emergency personnel, the Catholic Churches within that geographic region will cancel the scheduled Saturday Vigil, Sunday, Holy Day or Weekday Masses. Roman Catholics in that region, therefore, are dispensed from the obligation to attend Mass. If Masses are cancelled, Catholics are encouraged to participate in Holy Mass via television, radio, or internet, making a spiritual Communion. When Mass is cancelled, all other diocesan, parish, or school events in that geographic region are also cancelled.

St. John’s Online Giving

St. John’s Online Giving has recently changed the platform that they are using to facilitate St. John’s donations.  We are in the process of learning more about this new program which is provided through ParishSoft, the parish’s census program.  They have currently automatically changed the login address.  If you try to access your account, you will need to use the email address you have associated with your account and ask for a new password.  Please be patient.  We hope to have more information for you soon.  Thank you.
