UPDATE: ATTENDING MASS DURING THE PANDEMIC

Considering that our Governor recently issued an executive order (GA34) that lifted the COVID-19 related operating limits for businesses and establishments, Bishop Mulvey has issued the following directives:

1) ALL pews are now open (everyone is invited to keep a safe and respectful distance...in as much as possible; staggered seating is encouraged).

2) ALL church entrances/exits can be used as normal.

3) Hand sanitizer is made available for everyone who enters the church.

4) Wearing of face coverings is still strongly encouraged.

5) The holding of hands during the Lord's Prayer will remain omitted.

The method by which we distribute Holy Communion will remain the same.

REMINDER: Those who are symptomatic or who have been exposed to a person who is COVID positive within 7 days should remain home.  Those who are at risk because of an underlying health issue and those who are elderly are encouraged, for their own health, to avoid the risk of attending public celebrations of the Mass.  The dispensation from the Sunday obligation is still in place for this group of people only.
