Christmas Mass Reservation Update

Mass Reservation Update
In our church bulletin and on a postcard from the parish, there was a mis-statement implying that family members such as college students or other immediate family members should not sit with their families. We are sorry for any misunderstanding. 

In making a reservation,  family members can  be seated together including those returning from college and other immediate members. All must be able to sit in a single pew since distancing does not allow sitting in an adjacent pew. Plan your reservations accordingly. 

We’ve scheduled a number of Christmas Masses  to cover needs as best we can, under current circumstances. It’s possible, you may need to be flexible regarding a preferred Mass time. 

To allow for the safest environment for all at Mass, including those who are most vulnerable to illness, we do require use of face masks, distancing, communion in the hand and other means. Our ushers will be there to help you and ensure our best environment for Mass.

Of course, anyone with a recent, known significant exposure to someone who is or might be positive for Covid should not attend. Your charity on behalf of others in these matters is appreciated. Merry Christmas from our parish staff! We look forward to seeing you now and in the future!

- Fr. Neil

Thank you for following all the health safety rules, the parish staff has been working diligently to balance being able to gather at church within the pandemic public health safety guidelines. 

Because of the COVID pandemic If you are uncomfortable attending a large gathering, it's okay to stay at home.  Our obligation to attend Mass is still removed by Archbishop Jackels due to the pandemic.
