Holy Cross Church Reopens for Private Prayer Beginning May 13
May 08, 2020
Good news! Bishop O'Connell has given us permission to open churches in the diocese for private prayer beginning next Wednesday.
We will announce the hours next week. As he promised, there are some universal regulations and others that can be left to the local parish pastor.
The church must be closed during any live mass streaming and no public liturgies or sacraments are allowed.
Social distancing must be observed and masks must be worn. Rest rooms will remain closed and there will be no holy water in the stoups.
We might close off certain areas of the parking lot and pews to facilitate social distancing, traffic and cleaning. So be aware.
Bare bones information for now, but great news indeed! Stay alert for our hours and full set of "regulations."
Keep praying!
Fr. Manning
