YOUTUBE LIVE
The dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass continues; no one is obliged to attend. Those who are not attending Mass due to the Coronavirus, are asked to find a Mass on TV, the radio, or online and make a Spiritual Communion. Where that is not an option, it would be appropriate to pray the Liturgy of the Hours or the Holy Rosary.

Do not respond to scam emails or texts
Some of our parishioners may be receiving phishing emails or texts that appear to come from their pastor telling them:
"[name of parishioner] I need a favor from you. Text me back as soon as possible. Father Bodin."
"How are you? I need a personal assistance from you, please email me back as soon as possible. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks, Fr. Daniel Bodin."
"Blessings! Do you have a moment? I have a request I need you to handle discreetly. I am going into a meeting now, no calls so just reply my email as soon as you get it. God bless you! -sent from a mobile device"
"I have a request for you to manage discreetly for me. I have been working on incentives regarding my aim at surprising our diligent staff with gift cards this week. This should be confidential until they all have the gift cards and you will keep one for yourself too. I need you to help me purchase the gift cards and I have an amount I want to spend on it. Let me know if you can help??"If you have received such emails or texts, please discard them immediately. If you have questions or concerns you can always contact the Parish Office at: 651-982-2200.

MASS ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENTS: READ HERE
The Bishops of MN made it clear that parishes should only return to a limited public celebration of the Mass when the many protocols established by the Archdiocese, the CDC, and the Governor can be met and maintained.
- The dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass continues; no one is obliged to attend.
- Church Sanitization Requirement calls for cleaning in between ALL Masses.
- Social Distancing is REQUIRED.
- Masks are REQUIRED.
- No Cry Room or Gathering Space seating will be available.
- Entrance and Exit Doors will be regulated.
- If the Mass is full in the Church when you arrive, please come to a different Liturgy, go to St. Peter's Hall, or watch Mass online.
- Parishioners receiving Communion will need to follow 'social distancing' guidelines and use hand sanitizer.
- The safety of all who attend Mass at our parish is of the utmost importance. We will continue to provide updates through our website, bulletin, e-newsletter, and social media.
- If you feel sick or have symptoms, please stay home.
- FACE MASKS AT MASS: On July 22, Governor Walz issued an Executive Order requiring face coverings in all indoor spaces, including churches, though those decisions are ultimately within the authority of the diocesan bishop. Nonetheless, the Archbishop appreciates encouraging mask use, promoting community health, and not giving scandal to others by not wearing masks. One important note: liturgical ministers are not required to wear face coverings when lecturing, singing, or celebrating Mass. Nor should face masks be used by children under the age of two and persons with certain respiratory conditions for whom wearing a mask poses a greater health risk. The mask should also be removed for the reverent reception of Holy Communion. We ask that you direct any comments or complaints about the Order to Gov. Tim Walz at (651) 201-3400 or the Governor’s web page at: https://mn.gov/governor/contact/.
