Because of area pastoral needs, weekday Masses are not regularly celebrated at the Fonda Kateri Shrine unless noted in the schedule above. Alternating weekly, Masses are celebrated in either St. Cecilia's, Fonda or Sacred Heart, Tribes Hill at 8:30 AM, preceded by Morning Prayer at 8:15 AM. Visiting pilgim groups are asked to plan accordingly and attend the parish Masses or the regular weekday Masses scheduled at the Auriesville Shrine. Groups may schedule talks on Kateri before they visit.
