"Special Announcement - Beginning Friday, Oct. 2, 2020, the public celebration of the Sacrament of Reconciliation (confession) will be made available to our parishioners at St. Mary, Star of the Sea in Aransas Pass. Confessions will be heard from 6pm to 7pm in what was formerly known as the "Library," which is the room located next to the choir area of the church. If you are facing the altar, it is to the left of the altar. The Sacrament will be celebrated each First Friday of the month until further notice. Private confessions can still be scheduled through the parish office. Masks must be worn and social distancing must be observed. The options of behind the screen and face to face confession will be made available. Please observe signs and instructions regarding where to line up for the reception of the Sacrament. Please call the parish office if you have any questions. In October additional announcements will be made regarding Baptisms and Religious Education classes. Please stay tuned. Thank you all for your patience and God bless all of you. Fr. Emilio"
