  • If you are sick, or have symptoms of a fever or flu, or simply do not feel well, it is asked and recommended that you do not enter the church building and stay home to eliminate the chance of spreading any sickness or virus to other people. Although there will be precautions and sanitary measures in place, there is always a risk that you could get sick from other people or that you may get other people sick when attending Mass. Please exercise your good judgment.

St. Anthony and St. Hyacinth Parishes Milwaukee:  COVID-19 Response to the Needs of the Community.

Serving and continue to help and support our parishes in time of crises.

The St. Anthony and St. Hyacinth administration, staff and leaders of our communities have organized and worked on different provisions to support our communities. 

We have more than 2,093 people who attend our Sunday’s Masses and more than 900 families that we have contacted via phone calls to find out if there is something they need help with or assistance by our administration.  The reaction of the communities has been very positive, and we are glad that we can be there for them.  Most of them they are very happy that we called them.

At the beginning of the quarantine we offered a retreat for our communities sponsored by the Archdiocese, we also offered free movies sponsored by Formed.org, excellent movies and more.

The priests from the south side parishes offered meditated Stations of the Cross on Good Friday.

Streaming Mass Services – St. Anthony & St. Hyacinth Parishes

We been offering Masses streamed online every day and also on Saturdays and Sundays, two Masses at different hours so that there are more opportunities for our community to watch them and be a part of them.

We have the Rosary every night at 9:00pm by Fr. Jose A. Anaya

The Health Group on Wednesdays at 6:00pm with Fr. Jose A Anaya

Bible Classes on Friday nights at 7:00pm with Fr. Jose A. Anaya

Cesilia Gonzalez-Esparza owner/counselor of “Growing Mindful Psychotherapy, Creciendo Plenamente, LLC” has introduced the workshops below. She has offered these three workshops in gratitude and for the needs of our communities.

We continue looking for ways to be present for our parishioners by helping them according to our possibilities.

We know some people in our communities do not accept help even when they need it, this may be due to cultural views or customs. 

The staff called our members at the beginning, to ask them about their well-being and to offer our services.

The parish staff has also been working from home monitoring and returning phone messages, emails, working on the bulletin, keeping up to date the parishes’ Facebook and webpage, maintaining the parish calendar, rescheduling parish services such as baptisms, weddings and quinceañeras, processing checks, accounts payable and receivable and mailing of letters to parishioners among other daily tasks.

We recruited parish leaders to call every member of our parishes; we called 900 families to see if they need anything from us. Our communities were very pleased with the calls, some families accepted food or money and we have already sent them the money and the food was delivered to other parish members to their homes. So far, on the third week we have delivered food to fifty-five families.  We will continue to take food to their houses and to other families in need as we find them.  The food has been donated by Catholic Charities and members of our parishes. Also, the fund to help our community was donated by a member from within our own community.  The emergency food pantry was opened at the rectory of St. Hyacinth and coordinated by members, staff and the Jesuits volunteers living there at our rectory.

As of now we are getting ready and preparing to open our churches, we are training our leaders, sacristans, altar servers and coordinators of liturgy so they can be ready for the opening and we are forming groups for each Mass to help with hospitality and cleaning after the Masses.

We will continue to coordinate and work on whatever we need to do to open our parishes.

The Administration.
