Video with Guidelines for Christmas Day Eucharist

IMPORTANT GUIDELINES FOR THOSE ATTENDING IN-PERSON EUCHARIST:

COVID-19 is widespread in our community at a higher level than it has ever been since the beginning of the pandemic. To participate in this event, and for the safety of our parishioners and our clergy, read the following:
  • No one with any symptom of illness, regardless of how insignificant, should attend - including (but not limited to) colds, congestion, sore throats, fever in past few days, or body aches.
  • No one who has been exposed to someone with COVID-19 should attend. If you are not sure, ask any individuals you have spent time with personally in the last two weeks whether they have been around anyone who is positive for COVID-19. They do not have to have COVID themselves to have exposed you to the virus through another person in their social group.
  • All participants must be remain masked (no gaiters, bandannas, etc.) over their mouth and nose for the entire event unless inside your own vehicle with doors closed
  • Everyone -- including children -- must remain at a minimum of 6 feet apart from anyone outside their household, including in-between cars. Follow the marked spots we'll have on the asphalt in the parking lot while waiting to receive Eucharist.
  • No hugs or handshakes or other touching signs of affection, unfortunately! But know we are all missing one another so much, and it will be a wonderful gift to see one another (from a safe distance!)
