Easter Sunday Masses, April 21
8:00am - 9:30am - 11:00 (Youth Mass)

Weekday hours: Our Lady of the Chesapeake will follow Anne Arundel County Public School policy at www.aacps.org in cases of inclement weather. If schools are closed, the Parish Offices are closed, the 9:00 a.m. Mass is cancelled and all evening meetings and activities are cancelled. If the schools are delayed, the 9:00 a.m. Mass and all morning meetings and activities will be cancelled and Parish Offices will be delayed opening the same amount of time. For example, if schools are delayed 2 hours, the Parish Offices will open at 11:00 a.m. instead of 9:00 a.m. If schools are closed early and school evening activities are cancelled, then the Parish Offices will close at the same time and all evening meetings and activities, including Youth Ministry, at the parish are cancelled.

Weekend Mass Schedule: Masses will go on as scheduled, unless the Archbishop of Baltimore grants a general dispensation from the Sunday obligation. Visit the parish website, Facebook page, or call the Parish Office to confirm whether Masses are being celebrated. We will do everything possible to update them as soon as possible. When in doubt please call the parish office. There is no obligation to attend Mass when weather causes hazardous road conditions. Please exercise prudent judgment and do not take unnecessary risks by driving on snowy or icy roadways.

Please call the Youth Ministry Office (410-255-3677, extension 106) voicemail/answering service for any cancellation messages dealing with Youth Ministry events.
