GENERAL REMINDER
Parishioners are reminded to show reverence to the Lord and consideration for others as follows. We seek your kind cooperation and understanding so that we can all worship comfortably as a Church:
-Please arrive early and be seated at least 10 minutes before Mass begins to avoid causing unnecessary interruption or distraction.
-The sacredness of the Eucharistic celebration urges all participants to dress appropriately when entering the Church for Holy Mass andmanifest the importance of what we are doing as a worshipping community.
-Wearing of face masks in Church is no longer mandatory but highly encouraged, especially in crowded and closed environment.
-Those sick with flu-like symptoms (e.g. fever, cough, runny nose, etc.) are to exercise prudence and refrain from joining the congregation in Church.
