Our Lady of the Valley

Dear Brothers and Sisters, 
  Social distancing remains a must as we begin the school year. We continue to limit masses to 200 people in order to remain open. Please keep 6 feet between you and the next family/person. Use masks inside the facility and sanitizer as you enter and leave the buildings. 
  Our pews are roped off to help with the distancing and are wiped down between each Mass. If you are the first in your pew, please move to the center to enable others to sit on the aisle. When individuals sit on the aisle, others cannot get to the center to sit, leaving much space inaccessible. Please be considerate of others who also wish to celebrate in the Eucharist. 

Because people are able to come in individually throughout the day, we are not able to wipe the pews between each visitor during the week. Please sanitize and be health-wise...for your own safety and that of others using the sanctuary.

 For sacramental emergencies, please call the parish at 208-459-3653 and press 7.
 
   Para emergencias sacramentales, (unción de los enfermos), llame la parroquia 208-459-3653 y marque 7.

Making everyone WELCOME in Our Lady of the Valley Parish
is the desire of our Pastor, Fr. Mike St. Marie. 

We are each responsible to welcome people as they come into and leave the Masses and/or special events at the Parish, help people find their way around the Parish, introduce them to others...much as we would welcome visitors into our own home.  If you or your parish group would like to join us in welcoming all to our parish, please stop by the parish office or leave us your name and available dates. 

Flocknote is another way to stay updated and connected with the events and activities around Our Lady of the Valley.  If you would like to receive notifications regarding Mass time changes, reminders for special Masses and other events like First Communion practice, visits from the Bishop Peter Christensen, or inspirational words shared by our Pastor, Deacons or the team, register for Flocknote or call the office and ask to be added.
