Dear Parishioners,
Weekend Masses will be held at 4:00pm on Saturday, and 8:00am, 10:00am, and 12:00pm on Sunday. To ensure everyone's safety, there will be a limited number of spaces available. A signup email will be sent out on Tuesday via Flocknote. Unfortunately, you will not be able to attend without registering in advance to allow for the necessary social distancing. We can now safely accommodate 500 people for each Mass. When we reach the social-distancing capacity in the main Church, we will put up signs in the narthex directing additional people to the Social Hall and Children’s Chapel. Mass is simulcast to both spaces and we will bring Holy Communion to you. To ensure social-distancing and keep everyone safe, please do not stand in the narthex or around the walls inside the church.
- We will continue to send Mass to you electronically so please do not put yourself at risk. Archbishop Lori has suspended the obligation to attend Mass and it is extremely important that you do not put yourself or others at risk. If not feeling well, please stay at home and pray with us electronically.
- Everyone must wear a mask, which covers the nose and mouth, throughout the entire Mass, except when receiving communion.
- Please keep the social distancing requirement of 3 feet away from the closest person; however members of the same household may sit together.
- Holy Communion will be distributed on the hand; please keep 3 feet away from the person in front of you.
- Restrooms are now open with the following conditions—only 2 people at a time and please wear your mask covering your mouth and nose at all times.
~Monsignor Luca
