Important Information that must be reviewed each time you will be attending Mass:

1. Anyone attending Mass in person must be in good health. If you answer yes to any of the following questions, do not attend:
   1. Are you feeling sick?
   2. Do you have a fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, or shortness of breath?
   3. Have you travelled outside of Canada within the last 14 days?
   4. Are you in close contact with a person who tested positive for COVID-19?
   5. Have you tested positive for COVID-19?
2. Masks are mandatory at all times while in the building, in accordance with the Provincial Health Order, until July 11.
3. Attendance will be limited in accordance with the current public health order until July 11. Households are expected to maintain a minimum 2m (6') distance between each other. Pews are marked to help facilitate social distancing.
4. Please be considerate. Many others are also wishing to attend Mass at this time. While we are limited to 150 attendees (until July 11), consider signing up to attend every 2 weeks, at least initially.
5. Please show up on time. Aim to arrive about 10-15 minutes before Mass. Especially with our limited numbers, if you are not present by the time Mass begins, other people may have been allowed to attend in your place, and you will not be allowed to enter the worship space.
6. Mass will be kept quite simple, but we need some volunteers.
   • We will not take up a collection, but have baskets available before and after Mass set up near the doors. The small grey box attached to the front of the Concierge Desk is also available. Alternately, donate now online.
   • We do not have an appointed Reader at weekday Mass times, so we ask one person attending to proclaim the First Reading & Responsorial Psalm. For Sundays, the Reader will typically also proclaim the Second Reading and Prayers of the Faithful.
   • To volunteer for ministries on Sundays, see holyfamilycathedral.ca/msp or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
     • Most essential: 2 Greeters & 1 Reader at each Mass; Sound Tech when we have music.
     • Very helpful: 2 Ushers, 1 Coordinator, and 1 Communion Minister at each Mass
7. Holy Communion will be distributed to those who wish to receive.
   • Please keep your mask on, come forward to receive the Eucharist, step aside to remove your mask to consume, and then replace the mask immediately after.
   • Use the floor markings to help maintain distance from other families while coming forward to receive communion.
   • Those who wish to receive on the tongue must be the last to receive. For additional details, see the directives from our bishop (pages 4-5; PDF file).
8. If you have registered to attend, we expect you to show up. If you are unable to do so, please cancel your registration (using the link in your confirmation email) or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. so that we can extend the opportunity to others.
9. There still will be a risk for anyone who attends a public Mass. Even with best health practices and strict personal distancing, anyone who enters a public space should recognize there is a risk of contracting the coronavirus. Improved cleaning will occur, but no one should expect that they will be any safer from germs than in other public spaces.
   • Those who are considered vulnerable (such as those who are included in this list from the Government of Canada) are encouraged to remain at home.
