PLEASE ATTEND THE MASS TO WHICH YOU HAVE AGREED TO COME.  i WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE ANTICIPATORY MASS, i.e.  THE SATURDAY 4:30 pm SPECIFICALLY DIRECTED TOWARD OUR OLDER FOLKS WHO ARE ABLE AND WILLING TO COME.  (see procedure below)**

• ALL ATTENDEES MUST WEAR MASKS AT ALL TIMES, BRIEFLY REMOVED FOR THE RECEPTION OF HOLY COMMUNION.  NOTICE THAT SOME AREAS OF THE CHURCH ARE BLOCKED OFF, THIS IS TO ASSURE PROPER DISTANCING.  FOLKS FROM THE SAME HOUSEHOLDS MAY SIT TOGETHER BUT PLEASE OBSERVE THE USUAL 6 FOOT DISTANCE BETWEEN ONE ANOTHER.
•  
• WE WILL NOT BE TAKING UP THE COLLECTION IN THE USUAL FASHION.  PLEASE NOTICE THE BASKET PLACED NEAR THE EXITS FOR THAT PURPOSE.  WE HAVE EXPERIENCED A NOTICEABLE DROP IN OFFERINGS SINCE ALL THIS BEGAN AND WHILE IT HAS NOT YET HAD A SERIOUS IMPACT, IT HAS MADE IT RATHER DIFFICULT AND WE DON’T SEE IT GETTING ANY BETTER UNLESS EVERYONE DOES HIS/HER PART TO SUPPORT THE PARISH.
•  
• HOLY COMMUNION FOR THE FAITHFUL WILL BE PLACE AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE MASS.  PLEASE APPROACH AGAIN WITH THE 6 FOOT DISTANCING IN PLACE.  THOSE WISHING TO EXERCISE THEIR RIGHT TO RECEIVE COMMUNION ON THE TONGUE MUST REMAIN UNTIL THE VERY END SINCE THIS REQUIRES INTERRUPTING CLEANING.  ONCE YOU HAVE RECEIVED PLEASE EXIT THE CHURCH AND RETURN TO YOUR CAR.

Admission to mass will be by TICKET ONLY for registered parishioners of St. Ann.  Due to the social distancing the capacity of the church has been REDUCED TO 90 INDIVIDUALS.  

1. To obtain a ticket you must go to the loading dock of the Soup Kitchen on Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday from 8:30 am to 11:30 am.  These times will be strictly observed and no exceptions.  
2. Tell Steve which mass you will attend and how many tickets you will need.  
3. One ticket per individual.   

PLEASE TAKE THESE DIRECTIVES SERIOUSLY.  THEY ARE IN PLACE FOR YOUR HEALTH AND SAFETY.

Sincerely,

Rev. Dominic Young.
