A note about masks:

• Masks are not strictly required to attend services in our church.  They are, however, recommended.
• Fr. Jason is wearing a mask during the distribution of Communion.

Restrictions relevant to the celebration of Mass are as follows:

• Everyone must maintain a 6' distance from one another, except for members of family households.  Every other pew is roped off.
• Holy Communion is only distributed under the species of the host and not under the species of wine.  In our parishes, only the priest will distribute Communion. 
• Communion may now be received either in the hand or on the tongue.  If a person's tongue is inadvertantly touched by the priest during distribution, he is to use hand sanitizer immediately, prior to further distribution of the Eucharist.
• The Sign of Peace remains suspended.
• There will be no offertory procession.  The offertory basket is placed near the doors of the church so parishioners may place donations there.
• People are not to gather to visit in the church halls or vestibules before or after Mass.
• One altar server may be used.  If under age 18, however, written permission of a parent for the child to serve is required.
• The obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days is still suspended.

Confession is available at regularly scheduled times, but must be conducted behind a screen.  No face-to-face option is available, except in emergency circumstances, of course.

Eucharistic Adoration may resume with the same restrictions as for Mass listed above.  See the bulletin and schedule for times.

Baptisms may be celebrated anytime but only one child is to be baptized in each ceremony. 

Weddings may now have up to 3 men and 3 women to assist and accompany the Bride and Groom and other guests may attend. Social distancing should continue to be maintained as far as possible and no congregating inside the Church before or after the Ceremony.

Anointing of the Sick is available at any time.  Contact Fr. Jason to receive this sacrament.

Funerals may now have a Vigil Service or Visitation in the Funeral Home either the day before or the day of the Funeral but not in the Church. No funeral luncheon in the Church after the Funeral Mass. Other guests may attend maintaining social distancing.
