An Act ofSpiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.

Covid Protocol Update
07.26.21
08.17.21 - The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend mask wearing indoors for all people, including those vaccinated, in areas with "substantial" or "high" rates of COVID-19 spread. Westchester County is now a "high" rates area
Please continue to help keep our Church community safe and healthy by wearing a mask indoors as per CDC guidelines. Holy Name of Jesus and the Archdiocese of NY follow the CDC guidelines for masking indoors during the ongoing pandemic.
If you or your family, including children 2-12 are unvaccinated, PLEASE wear masks indoors in our Church. This will help reduce the spread of the Covid virus, especially the new Delta variant which is highly transmissible.
Just a few facts to consider…as of 09/23 per the Westchester
County dashboard; 63.9% of Valhalla’s residents have been vaccinated, which means 36.1% have not and are still of risk to themselves and others.
If you have been full vaccinated, feel free to wear your mask in church as an additional layer protection.
Let’s continue to be vigilant in protecting one another. “Love thy neighbor as thy self”.

Halloween Crafts for Nursing Homes
Thanks so much to all our parishioners who last Saturday made Halloween crafts for nursing home residents. It was wonderful to be able to gather again after a year and a half apart due to covid. With all volunteers wearing masks and spaced out in the cafeteria, with windows and doors open, we made pumpkins, witches, Halloween necklaces….. Everything looked great!!! Special thanks to Sister Gertrude for helping to deliver the crafts. Thanks so much to all the volunteers who helped to brighten the day of our friends and neighbors in nursing homes.
