COVid protocolsEffective immediately, masks are now optional at Mass for all parishes within the Diocese of Fort Worth. Our protocols of enhanced cleaning, sanitizing between Masses, requiring parishioners to sanitize their hands, and maintaining social distancing of at least three feet between individuals and/or families remains in place.
Reception of Holy Communion is allowed on both the hand and the tongue, but please receive at the end of the line if you wish to receive on the tongue. Please be aware that Canon Law dispenses those from the obligation of attending Mass who feel that attendance would jeopardize their health. Anyone who is experiencing any symptoms of any illness should stay home from Mass.
