Statement on Racism from the Franciscan Provincials
At a time when the COVID-19 virus has disproportionately attacked people of color, we have witnessed the killing of Mr. George Floyd and the protests, sometimes violent, which have occurred in our cities in its aftermath. Our hearts go out to all affected.
Even though, following in the footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi, we decry violence and desire peace, we stand in solidarity with our outraged African American brothers and sisters who demand an end to the deadly violence of racism. We cannot be indifferent when their God-given dignity is violated.
As people of faith, we not only condemn the systemic racism that has led to these events, but we also re-dedicate ourselves to ending racial injustice in our Provinces, in our Church, and in our nation and creating that space where Dr. Martin Luther King’s Beloved Community will flourish.

Church Updates regarding VirusJune 21. 2020
Brothers & Sisters,
May the healing presence of our Lord and the comfort of our Blessed Mother be with you all.
We the staff at Mission San Jose want to assure you of our prayers especially for all those who are suffering from the Coronavirus.
We would ask anyone who is in need of prayers to let us know vis email or call the office. We will then take your request to Our Lady of Guadalupe Chapel in the Church say a prayer and light a candle for your intention.
Any of our parishioners who are in need of assistance getting supplies or other
Issues please call the office. We will do all we can to get you help.
Our parish has been around for 300 years and we are sure during all that time the residents experienced a variety of pandemics. Through the grace of God, they survived and we will too…. together!
May the Lord give you Peace!
Update
June 23, 2020This morning, we were notified of the COVID 19 test resulted positive for some of our parishioners. As per CDC guidelines, for the next 2 Sundays we will NOT celebrate public mass at Mission San Jose. We will continue with precautionary measures. For the masses of June 28 and July 5, the mass will only be livestream via Facebook No attendees please.
The office will remain open during normal working hours. Please let those who do not have social media or internet know of this notification. Please help Fr. Rogelio spread this message.

Brothers & Sisters,
This past Sunday we celebrated the great feast of Corpus Christi, the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. Christ being present in the Eucharist is our connection between Heaven and Earth, our connection to each other.
Many of you are unable to attend and receive the Eucharist at Mass. Please know that you can receive Spiritual Communion. “ Spiritual Communion is the act of desiring union with Jesus Christ in the Most Holy Sacrament and is used to prepare oneself for Holy Mass by believers who, for any of various reasons (including a pandemic), can’t actually receive Holy Communion. In fact, recently, Pope Francis recently urged Catholics to perform the Spiritual Communion during the COVID-19 pandemic.” NCR
The past few months have been a real challenge for all of us especially for those who unable to attend our Sunday Mass. The decree by Archbishop Gustavo to
remove the obligation to attend Mass on Sunday is still in place.
I am always asked when I think the parish will be open again and things get back to normal. A good question with no good answer. All we can do is our best to protect you and for you to protect each other by following the precautionary guidelines when we gather for Mass on Sunday.
Our Mass will continue to be outdoors on Sunday at 9 a.m.in front of the Church. Please bring a chair and you must wear a mask while attending the Mass. For those unable to attend the Mass we will continue to be live streamed on our Facebook page.
I once again wish to thank all the faithful who continue to support Mission San Jose with their donations. Your donation helps your parish in so many ways.
Also, if you haven’t had the opportunity please stop by our gift shop to see all the new items, including our Tricentennial memorabilia.
As a reminder our office is open Monday-Thursday 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. Please call if you have any questions.
God Bless You & Be Safe!
Fr. Rogelio
