Winter Storm, January 26-27, 2015

Monday, January 26
Because of the predicted snowstorm and the possibility that travel will become 
difficult in the city and throughout the metropolitan area, we will
close the church today at 4:00 PM.

Evening Prayer will not be said in the church and
the Evening Mass has been cancelled.

Tuesday, January 27
Based on the information available to us at the present time, we believe that 
the church will also be closed on Tuesday. We will send out an additional notice 
about that as soon as a final decision has been made.

Making Preparations
The Diocese of New York has reminded us that
New Yorkers should be prepared to be self-sufficient during the next 24-72 hours 
in case the storm results in store closings or difficult travel. This means, 
among other things, having sufficient food, water, cash,
and medications on hand, if possible.

We are also asked to remember the elderly and the homebound. If the storm is 
severe or if there are problems with power during this time, we are encouraged 
to check on our neighbors to find out if they need assistance.

Please be safe and use discretion about travelling during this time.
