Bishop Announcement

We are now at alert level 4 in our region.

A reminder of what is allowed:

• Gatherings at funerals, burials, weddings and religious and cultural ceremonies are expanded to 10 people (including the minister).
• Public visitations and wakes remain prohibited.

We will not re-open our churches for regular Masses.

Fraternally in Christ,

Due to the pandemic we cannot have different people lighting different candles. For that reason The candle will be lit by one of the parish representatives who is an usher or register for that day. Please remember at all times to maintain physical distancing. 

New guidelines received from our Public Health Office require non-medical masks to be worn in all public indoor places, including houses of worship beginning Monday, August 24th.  

This Public Health Order is waived for:

• Children under the age of 5; 
• People with physical or mental health conditions; 
• During “services provided” (i.e. receiving Holy Communion); 
• Showing Identification; 
• When deemed unsuitable under Occupational Health and Safety Regulations; 
• In seated areas, provided physical distancing of 2 meters is being practiced.

Beginning next Monday, Aug. 24th, parishioners will be expected to comply with this order.  They must wear a non-medical mask over “mouth and nose” while entering and moving around the church; they can remove their mask upon seating as long as the 2 meter physical distancing rule is practiced.  They must wear a mask going up for communion, but remove it at the time of communion.   Thank you for your cooperation and patience.
