As the state government announces lessened pandemic restrictions and businesses plan for reopening, parishioners might wonder when they can return to church. Our diocese is thinking about that, too, and prepared a flier advising us about initial things to consider. You can download the flier
here and from the first paragraph on our
COVID-19 Faith Response page.
Bishop Joseph C. Bambera noted that, “As time unfolds, people coming back into normal activities is probably going to happen a little more slowly than some might expect. We will do all that we can to facilitate our return to Mass, but ultimately must provide for the safety of the people God has given to our care.” Our parish, too, will do what we can to ensure safety as we return to our churches.
