GUIDELINES FOR THE CELEBRATION OF LITURGIES IN OUR CHURCHES
The
State of New York, following recommendations from the CDC, lower
rates of infection and higher numbers of people being vaccinated
against COVID-19, has relaxed many of the restrictions which were in
place. Because of that, with the pastoral care of the people of
Brooklyn and Queens in mind, Bishop DiMarzio issued the
following guidelines:
Our Churches are open to full 100% capacity.
Use hand sanitizer is still required. Sanitizer stations are at the entrance of the church.
Facemasks will be worn because not everyone in Church will have been vaccinated.
Use hand sanitizer is still required. Sanitizer stations are at the entrance of the church.
Facemasks will be worn because not everyone in Church will have been vaccinated.
Hymnals
and missalettes can once again be used.
For
safety and proper hygiene, the Precious
Blood of Christ may not be administered to the congregation.
Properly trained Parishioners (Readers) may resume proclaiming the Sacred Scriptural Readings at Mass, and (Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion) may distribute Communion at Mass (as required by the Pastor) and make homebound visits with permission of the Communicant.
Holy
water fonts should not be filled as yet.
Thank
you all for your patience during the past year.

Father
Lambert asks you to spend a few minutes viewing a short film entitled The
Veil Removed located at TheVeilRemoved.com .
This 7-minute video is beautifully made and
performed taking you into the true mystery of the Most Holy Sacrament of
the Altar. Having viewed it several times, I find myself yearning more
and more for Whom we often take for granted - Christ Jesus.
Give it a view, pass it on to your family and
friends, and reflect on that precious Gift we long to have by an Act of
Spiritual Communion.
God's infinite love and grace will get us through this crisis!
Please Pray for Pope Francis and
Bishop Robert Brennan
Saint Columba is a community whose faith is rooted in Christ and centered in the Eucharist.
