Families from the same households can

sit together

You can sit wherever you want as long as you sit in

the designated places.

There will be limited seating so we asked you to sign in ahead of time

or

Where do I take my offering?

One of our volunteers will be ready to sanitize the restroom immediately

Afterwards!

Will I be able to go to the restroom?

Parents can accompany children and

Caregivers can accompany those who need assistance

Song is Prayer!Singing is Worship!

Sing softly… or sing in your heart…but don’t stop singing!

How about

singing?

It may be a challenge to sing with a mask on…

but each person can only do the best they can!

To minimize contamination we have

removed all music books and cards from the pews

We will be trying different ways to make the music

available…

Your feedback is welcome!

Singing with your voice… or

with your heart…

GOD will be happy

The most challenging question!

Communion will be given with the consecrated Hostonly. The Precious Blood

will not be available

Because of the high risk of contamination,

we can only receive communion on the hand

Follow the 6 feet marks on the floor during the

communion line

How do I receive

communion?

1) Approach the minister with your mask on.

2) Receive the Host in your hands and respond “Amen”

3) Move to the side, pull your mask off and consume the Body of Christ while in place.

4) Pull your mask on again & return to your seat.

Some final thoughts!

Exit from Church will be only through: another

designated side door of the vestibule

When leaving the Church, please go straight to your car

and do not hang around on the patio

Entrance to Church will be only through one door:

Left-Side door of the vestibule

No physical contact during Mass: no holding hands or

touching at the Sign of Peace(a simple bow to each other

is sufficient)

Our friendly “COVID TEAM” will be ready to help you and answer your questions.

Don’t hesitate to ask!
