Hi Friends:
(Some might have seen this on FB, but since we are not all on FB here it is again, with my Video update below)
We are pleased to announce that St. Mary's is no longer taking reservations for the weekend English Masses, and reopening the back doors.
With numbers being consistent we are confident that we can accommodate everyone that wishes to come to each Mass, either in the church or parish center. This makes it easier on staff, as well, (hopefully) on the faithful!
We do know this might occasionally mean you don't sit where you want to, but it might also get us all in the habit of being extra early for Mass! ;)
Going forward we will count people as they come in and try to encourage people to sit in ways that allow our recommended capacity to fill the church. If you cannot find a spot in the church, or we have reached capacity, we will be ready for you in the parish center.
Just for Clarity, we are still working with limited capacity in the Church, so we appreciate your understanding, and we will still are doing the whole social distancing and face-covering thing - but hopefully just for a little bit longer.
The main (Middle) doors in the back, as well as the ramp door, will be open to WELCOME YOU TO THE EUCHARISTIC TABLE!
