An Update on Our Phase 1 Re-Opening

An Update on Our Phase 1 Re-Opening
We have a lay leadership team in place and will have completed our certification from the Archdiocese to open the church doors again early this week. Our goal at this point is to resume the Sacrament of Reconciliation next weekend and to open the church for prayer next Sunday. It looks at this point that we'll have a system in place to help us know who is interested in being present so that we can be sure to plan appropriately.

Of course, we are very mindful of the protocols we'll need to follow, which includes proper social distancing, the wearing of face masks, the use of hand sanitizer and the necessary things we need to do to clean and disinfect all common areas.

The goal is not just to re-open, but to create a worship space that is conducive to keeping us healthy. We will send out a notice once we know we are good to re-open again with the details.

Help Needed
To make everything work well, we'll need a team in place to get us through the two phases.  If you're interested in helping us through Phase 1--to support our celebrations of Baptisms, Weddings, Reconciliation, Funerals or Prayer Time--we could sure use it.  

In looking ahead to Phase 2, we are also assembling a team of parishioners who would like to help us when it's time for Sunday Masses to resume.  We need people who are interested in serving as Greeters (welcoming you and making sure you have a place to sit) and Ushers (helping us through the services). We'll also need a team to help us set up for Masses and clean and sanitize afterward.  

If you are interested in helping, please click here to fill out a  Volunteer Form and our leadership team will be in touch with next steps. Please note that we need to be careful and considerate of your situation, so if you're in a vulnerable population (65 or older, or have health concerns) we understand if you are unable to help at this time.

Once again, we're grateful to our St. Hubert Stewards Ministry for helping us give our worship space a thorough cleaning. We're moving ahead because we're working together--very carefully--to make it work.
