A Reminder

Our parish churches have the benefit of restroom facilities. At Our Lady of Sorrows Church, one is located at the elevator entrance, which is to the right of the sanctuary. We ask that whenever going to and coming from the facility, one be aware of the presence of the Lord in the tabernacle, and of the sacred actions taking place when Mass is being celebrated. Not a few times, people have walked past the altar even at the time of consecration without acknowledging this most sacred part of the Mass.

When passing by, be attentive—stop a moment to bow or genuflect towards the sanctuary and, if the consecration is taking place, please pause until it is completed before returning to your place. This provides a witness to our faith in the Real Presence of the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.
