For weekday Mass Schedule please check the bulletin. 

Dear Parishioners of Potsdam and Colton,

We resume out regular schedule of Masses with restrictions to help us prevent spreading the Coronavirus. Wearing masks and staying two yards away from people you don't live with will help prevent the spread. We're limited to 125 people in Saint Mary's Church in Potsdam and 70 in Saint Patrick's Church in Colton. Those numbers are sufficient for out needs at present except for the 8:00 Sunday Mass in Colton, since during summer we usually have over a hundred at that Mass. I ask that people whose condition or age would make them prone to serious illness if they contracted the virus not to attend a weekend mass but to attend one of the weekday Masses instead. Check the bulletin for time and place. Also, if some of those inclined to attend the 8:00 Sunday Mass in Colton would attend one of the other Masses, that would help us to accommodate the 70 person limit in Colton. The ministers of communion and myself will distribute Holy Communion after recessing and putting on masks so as to allow a slower distribution of communion and a less congested leaving of the church.
