While our county remains in the Green Phase of statewide reopening, all of us need to do our part to make sure that our return to Mass is a peaceful and safe experience for all. Please take the time to read the guidelines below. We ask everyone to follow these guidelines when attending Mass during this period:
Please Note
The obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and holy days of obligation continues to be lifted during the Green Phase. You are NOT required to attend Mass at this time.
Please stay home if you are sick.
Please stay home if you are at higher risk of severe illness with COVID-19
Please wash your hands for 20 seconds using soap and water.
Before entering the Church, please put on a face mask or cloth covering. Exceptions to this are children younger than 2 years old.
