Wonderful news! Masses resume starting this Sunday, April 26th! (not Saturday evening tho). Likewise, the daily Masses resume next week, as well as adoration!
We will also have the distribution of Holy Communion!
There will be more details coming, but the Bishop and all parishes will be observing careful social distancing and taking all necessary precautions to care for public health -- these include things like, sitting with 6 feet distance between families, frequent and careful sanitation of the pews and door handles etc, not shaking hands before/during/after Mass, etc.
The dispensation from the Sunday Obligation remains, and anyone who is fearful of the pandemic or who falls under the governor's directive as a "vulnerable individual" who might be more susceptible to serious health injury due to the virus, are encouraged to stay home. Nobody has to come to Mass (you are all dispensed), but those who would like to are able to attend and receive Communion!
All of this was just established by a memo from the Bishop this evening, and is fully in accord with the recent directive issued by the Governor.
