Holy Innocents’ Foundation and Adoration Chapel of Oklahoma announced plans to reopen and resume perpetual adoration in Warr Acres the week of June 8, said Father M. Price Oswalt, president and chaplain.
The chapel has been closed since March due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“Plans are still being formulated, and the new adoration coordinators are working with our list of adorers to make sure we can cover the necessary hours to have 24-7 adoration,” Father Oswalt said.
He indicated that the plan is to hold an opening Mass on Monday, June 8 and resume adoration following.
As with many situations and institutions, our parishes and schools, Oswalt indicated that Holy Innocents’ has experienced a funding shortage in the COVID-19 shutdown.
“Our revenues, donations and contributions have declined, but our bills have not! It still costs us about $4,500 a month to operate and pay the mortgage on the building.”
Donations can be sent to Holy Innocents’ Foundation, P.O. Box 22171, OKC 73123 or online at holyinnocentsokc.org by using Paypal. All donations are tax deductible.
