Flocknote

Brothers and Sisters,

As we prepare to welcome you back to mass in the parish, it would be helpful to know what your plans are for returning. Messages sent in the last few days provide details about the precautions being taken. Briefly:

Daily mass begins this week and will be celebrated by Fr. Vincent Sullivan. Weekday masses at St. Francis will not be available online. Mass is at 9:00 Monday through Friday.
Face coverings are required for mass. (Children under two do not need a face mask).
Seating is limited to every other pew, and 6 feet apart within pews (families can sit closer). 100 capacity.
Communion should be received in the hand rather than on the tongue. This is the only time the face mask should be removed.
Ushers will direct the flow of communicants to ensure safe spacing.
Follow the arrows on the floor to maintain appropriate flow.
The church will be cleaned after each mass.
If you have a fever, are experiencing signs of sickness, or have a compromised immune system, please remain home.
Church opens 30 minutes before Mass.
No gathering in narthex.

For more details about precautions being taken, please refer to previous Flocknote messages.
