March 28, 2021UPDATED INFORMATION FOR MASSES IN THE ARCHDIOCESE OF HARTFORD
Parishes are open for the public celebration of daily and weekend Masses. All previously set requirements will still be observed during both weekday and weekend Masses. This includes the wearing of masks while in church and the limitation on singing, which may be done by a cantor but will not include participation by the congregation.
DISPENSATION UPDATE: With the continuation of limitations on Mass attendance and our responsibility to ensure the health and safety of our Catholic people, the Archbishop is extending the dispensation from the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days up to and including Sunday, May 23rd, which is Pentecost Sunday. The elderly, the sick, those who care for someone who is vulnerable, or those who are fearful or anxious are encouraged not to attend or feel obligated to attend at this time.
Live-streamed Masses, both daily and weekend, will continue on our website (sjjenfield.org) so that those who cannot attend will be able to participate and remain connected with the parish.
If you decide to attend Mass, please be charitable by protecting others and yourself. Please read and follow the guidelines below.
· If you or someone in your household is ill, especially with fever or flu-like
symptoms or conjunctivitis, please do not enter the church.
· At all times, including entering and exiting the church, practice social distancing by staying at least 6 feet from people who do not live in your household.
· You must wear a face mask or cloth face covering. The proper way to wear the mask effectively is to have the mask cover both your nose and mouth.
· Do not shake hands with others.
· Use hand sanitizers.
· Do not congregate to socialize before or after Mass.
PLEASE TAKE PRECAUTIONS TO STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY FOR YOURSELF,
YOUR FAMILY, AND YOUR FELLOW PARSHIONERS.
