FACE MASKS: These masks should be worn at all times. (as per newest Government Regulations). Always remain 2 meters distant from others.
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.
