Welcome
St. Bernard's is part of the Fall River Diocese which includes Southeastern Massachusetts, Cape Cod and the Islands. We celebrate our diversity, yet we stand together as one. Together we strive to be holy. “Catholic” means “universal” — open to all people of all ethnics, of all races, of all economic levels. We are proud to be called Catholic. Our parish conducts various programs to serve you and our community. Our staff will be happy to answer any questions you may have about our many activities.

March 17, 2022 AN UPDATE FROM THE DIOCESE OF FALL RIVER REGARDING THE WEARING OF MASKS AT MASS
The wearing of a mask by parishioners at Mass is optional and left to individual discretion. Non-vaccinated, immuno-compromised persons are strongly encouraged to continue to wear a mask. The Diocese echoes the CDC recommendation for this region: “Wear a mask based on your personal preference, informed by your personal level of risk.”
Priests, deacons, and Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion are no longer required to wear masks during the distribution of Holy Communion. Again, this is left to individual discretion.
Holy Communion should still be received by hand only.
