St Angela Merici Parish,
On Thursday March 19th we sent out a letter, notifying you of the possible exposure to the COVID-19 virus, resulting from the incident that happened in the church on March 8th during the 8am Mass.
All known parishioners involved in assisting with this incident were personally notified and proper protocol was put in place immediately upon notification to the parish office.
We have been in continued contact with Ft Bend County Health Department, and as no symptoms have been reported to the Health Department as of last night at midnight, the investigation has been closed. All parties that were involved and monitored by the Health Department have been released from self quarantine, and this includes myself and Fr Joy.
I want to thank you for all your prayers and support during this challenging time.
The couple that tested positive has now been released from the hospital and recovering at home. I ask that you keep them in prayer, as well as all others fighting this virus.
Please continue to pray for all our health care providers that are risking themselves to care for the sick. Pray for our leaders, that they have wisdom in guiding our country through this medical crisis.
I will continue to reach out to you through Flock Note and video messages. Fr Joy and I continue to pray for each of you and your families, and ask for your prayers. We will make it through this!
ST ANGELA MERICI, PRAY FOR US
Yours in Christ,
Fr John Cahoon
Pastor
