Notice regarding Sunday obligation
The Sunday Mass obligation for members of the Ordinariate at heightened risk of complications from respiratory tract infection (those over 60 or who have health problems) is fulfilled by attendance at Mass or through one of the two following pious practices:

a. Prayerful reflection upon the Sunday Scripture readings (available Saturday evening here--see First Reading, Second Reading and Holy Gospel), concluding that time by the recitation of the Prayer of Humble Access or the Anima Christi (both available here).

b. The recitation of the Rosary as a family.

In addition, Acts of Spiritual Communion may be found here.

Welcome to St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, a formerly Anglican, now happily Catholic parish in the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of Saint Peter. The Ordinariate is the North American diocese created by Benedict XVI for formerly Anglican parishes like ours. We are obedient to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church in all things. Our beautiful and traditional liturgy, which seeks to preserve elements of Anglicanism within the Catholic Church, is approved by the Vatican for use in the Ordinariate. We are permanently settled in Bridgeport, PA and serve the Philadelphia area.
