Please note that if Bullitt County Schools are closed due to inclement weather, the parish office and campus will be closed, and weekday mass will be cancelled. This will allow more time for our facilities staff to clear the sidewalks and parking lot, ensuring staff and parishioners have safe entry ways when campus reopens. Weekend masses will continue as scheduled.
