Thank you, Volunteers!

Dear Parishioners,

On behalf of the Community of St. Andrew, I'd like to express my greatest gratitude to all the Volunteers who, in these demanding circumstances, are helping the whole community with their time and energy.

Here below you'll find part of a message from Mary-Rita Dunning to the Lectors, regarding the protocols and regulations that have been implemented at St. Andrew's since the re-opening of the church in June 2020.

United in Prayers,

fr. zé

Please stay safe and well, follow all protocols of wearing Masks (over mouth AND nose) and Safe Distancing of 6 feet from others when in public.  

 

At Church, anytime, please follow the directions of those acting as ushers: their actions are designed to keep us all safe.

 

For those who are returning to the Church for the first time, use the main entrance, mask on and hands sanitized, follow the arrows to the foot of the Altar, and then turn left or right to sit where you are directed (white tapes mark the proper space and distancing). 

 

Communion is by the center row, STOP at the yellow marking, mask on, when the Priest says "THE BODY OF CHRIST" answer AMEN – then proceed to receive the HOST by HAND ONLY; receive the HOST, step aside to the next marking, remove one side of the mask, consume the HOST, replace your mask – and proceed to your seat using  the side aisle where you are seated.

After the final Blessing, exit the Church by the side exits only.  

 

Washrooms are for urgent use only at this time.

 

The Church is completely sanitized by trained volunteers after each Mass or gathering.

 

VOLUNTEERS ARE NEEDED!

- If you wish to volunteer please give your name and number to Lita Reyes.

- If you would like to join the Ushers ministry, in Gail Dillon's absence, please contact Steve Robinson  s.robinson@tepgroup.com

 

Thank you for your faithful service.

May we all continue to pray for one another, help one another and stay safe.

WE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER.
