Guidelines for Returning to Mass Together and Staying Healthy
1. MASKS—Everyone attending Mass must wear a face covering or mask
2. SANITIZE—We ask everyone to sanitize their hands before taking their seat for Mass. There will be Hand Sanitizer available as you enter the main church.
3. SEATING/COMMUNION RECEPTION—The ushers will provide instruction on seating and Reception of Communion. Please respectfully follow their direction.
4. EXITING CHURCH—Please exit from the side doors of the church—one row at a time.
5. REFRAIN FROM SOCIAL GATHERINGS—As you enter church, please immediately go to a pew marked open. At Mass’ end, please do not gather in groups.
Guidelines for Who Should or Should Not Attend Masses ~ Keep Yourself and Your Parish Family Safe!
1. If you are sick, feel uncomfortable about attending, or if you are in a high-risk group… Please stay home
2. Persons over 65 with heart conditions, high blood pressure, diabetes, medically compromised immune systems, or chronic illnesses should not attend large gatherings, including Mass
3. Your safety comes first—Those unable to wear a mask are not to attend.
Please note that Archbishop Perez has dispensed the faithful from the obligation to attend Mass until further notice.
Please keep saving your Redner’s Receipts and bringing them in when you are able to come to church again. This is an
easy way to help the parish financially. Receipts can be placed in the box under the large TV in the Narthex.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT!
