- The obligation to attend Mass remains suspended.
- Parishioners can attend any of the Masses we offer and doors will close when capacity (350 people) has been reached.
- Everyone (ages 10+) must wear a cloth mask. Those who do not wear a cloth mask will not be able to enter the church. Mask must cover both nose and mouth. Thank you!
- Bring your own hand sanitizer that can be used before receiving Holy Communion. Do not bring items that contain bleach into church as this will damage the pews.
- People with symptoms cannot enter church.
Instructions Before Entering Church- Put your mask on (for ages 10+). Remember, even if you choose to wear a face shield, masks covering nose and mouth must be worn by everyone. Thank you!
- As you walk into the narthex, sanitize your hands with sanitizer provided by the church.
- Family units may sit together, however, you may be sharing a pew with another household. Social distance will still be required between the households (6ft).
