24 Hours for the Lord is a worldwide initiative called for by Pope Francis to invite all people to receive the mercy of God through Eucharistic Adoration and the Sacrament of Reconciliation. It is happening all across the world on March 4 – 5, kicked off by Pope Francis in St. Peter’s Square.
Adoration will be held at St. John Church in the Chapel beginning Friday, March 4 after the 7:00am Mass and concluding at 10:00am on Saturday, March 5. Please come at any time, and stay for any length of time! Bring a friend! All are invited to this experience of God’s love and mercy!
If you are able to commit to a period of time (in increments of one hour) to be present for Adoration, you can sign up online or by contacting the Parish Office (781-235-0045 or stjohnwellesley@stjohnwellesley.org). This will help to ensure that at least two people are present for Adoration at all times. Thank you!

This year we have revised our Collaborative Christmas Mass Schedule. Our parishes of St. John & St. Paul are staffed by two assigned priests namely myself and Fr. MacKay. We are blessed to have two active Senior Priests who are glad to assist us, as well as Fr. Hehir who resides with us at St. John. Between the two parishes last year a total of 10 Christmas Eve Masses were celebrated. Currently we have only two assigned priests to carry the majority of our scheduled Masses. In light of this we had to eliminate one Mass from each parish on Christmas Eve. We have four 4:00 p.m. Masses. St. Paul has one in the Church and one in the Church Hall. This year at St. John, in order to help accommodate a greater number of parishioners, the second 4:00 p.m. Mass will be celebrated in Philbin Hall (St. John School Hall). Please note that Philbin Hall is not handicapped accessible. We plan to have close circuit TV simulcast the Church Mass into Powers Hall (Social/Church Hall) which we hope to reserve for those needing assistance. While it is understandable that this revised schedule will disappoint some, we could not realistically expect our available priests to cover a total of thirteen Masses in the collaborative for Christmas. ~Fr. Sepe
