A Plan for Resuming Public Masses

A Plan for Resuming Public Masses

– The staff watched a two hour webinar with the diocese on Wednesday, May 13, where it was explained to all the parishes what is involved with re-opening the church. We must submit a plan to the diocese for their approval. Our hope is that public Mass will resume on the weekend of May 23/24. Due to social distancing requirements, approximately 125 people will be able to attend each Mass. As this is a very fluid situation, we will send along more information as it becomes available.  Thank you all for your patience and understanding during this unusual time.  Please see Diocesan Guidelines below..
