Our Lady of Sorrows Catholic Church

Beginning this weekend, July 4 and 5, we are temporarily changing the weekend Mass schedule.  Masses will be Saturday at 5 pm, and Sunday at 8:30 am, 10:30 am, and 12:30 pm.  Also, another daily Mass has been added Tuesday evenings at 5:30 pm.  It is our hope that these changes will allow more of you to attend Mass during the coronavirus pandemic.

For those of you who cannot yet join us in the church, a video of Sunday's Mass will be posted to this website on Sunday at 11 am.

Note: when signing-up online, please enter both your first and last name and your phone number (not your e-mail address).  Also, please remember that, when you sign-up for a seat but do not come, you are depriving someone else of the opportunity to go to Mass.  Please be considerate of others.

Currently, no more than 25 people are permitted in the church, so to attend Holy Mass, you must sign-up either by calling the Parish Office at (503) 775-6731 during business hours, or doing it online through this website.  

When you arrive at the church, only those who have signed-up and given their name and phone number will be allowed inside.  Please note that once Mass begins, the door is closed and no one else is allowed into the church.  Once inside, CDC guidelines are followed, including sanitizing of hands, social distancing, sitting only in designated pews, and face masks are strongly recommended, especially if you want to sing.

The sign-up lists for attending Mass are primarily to facilitate sign-ups and to help us contact people in the event of a potential exposure at Mass. The lists are intended for internal use by our parish, and must be maintained. If there is accidential exposure to the coronavirus at Mass, we will follow the guidelines put forth by health officials regarding potential exposure. If you are not comfortable with public officials potentially being given your name and contact information, then you should refrain at this time from signing up and attending Mass.
