2020 Parish Registration Form

We are pleased to announce that public celebration of Sunday Mass has resumed. However, Mass will be celebrated keeping within national and diocesan guidelines: Seating will be marked so as to maintain the 6 foot recommended social distance – so you may not get to sit in your “regular” seat, or with your usual friends. Due to the 6 foot safe distance requirement, seating capacity will be reduced in the church. “Overflow” seating will be available in the Parish Life Center (PLC) with 5:30pm and 9am Mass being live streamed to the center. A Host minister will administer communion to parishioners in the PLC. Please stay home if you are feeling ill. As Bishop Vetter stated, “It’s so important that you realize that the Sunday obligation is still suspended for you. It is so important, if you are vulnerable, to stay at home- if you are elderly, if you are just not comfortable yet, don’t come. Come only when you are ready.”
