EXPECTATIONS AS WE PREPARE TO GATHER FOR MASS On-line pre-registration is the best way for us as a community to be welcoming and prayerful while adhering to the strict expectation of maintaining 1/3 our official capacity. That magic number is 200 persons. Each Monday morning, the pre-registration site will go live. Parishioners can choose which Mass they will attend. An email confirmation will be sent. Bring this confirmation email with you to present to those who will be at the center main doors. There will be personnel there to insure pre-registration, that each person is wearing their mask and to advise that social distancing is to be observed when entering/exiting, selecting a seat, processing/recessing to receive Holy Communion. It will require all to come earlier than usual to be processed and to search for seating that observes social distancing. Because of this entrance will be restricted once the Mass has begun. Masks and Social/Physical distancing are required. There can be no physical collection of Stewardship Offerings; Two designated boxes will be placed in the Narthex/Gathering Space for the placement of envelopes or offerings. Thank you for your generosity. Missals, Missalettes, Bulletins, and other papers have been removed. Holy Water has been drained from all locations. Parish Clergy will distribute Holy Communion; we ask all coming forth to observe distancing front to back and
side to side. We have been advised that socializing before or after the Mass inside or outside is to be discouraged; clergy are not permitted to greet parishioners before or after the Mass. Weekend Mass Pre-registration acceptance for June 21st, 8 am, 10 am, or 12 noon Masses will be Monday, June 15 - Thursday, June 18, at noon.
