Coronavirus Safety Protocols

The Diocese of San José is issuing the following modifications to our current COVID safety protocols effective August 3, 2021.

• Per CDC and state protocols, masks are required indoors regardless of vaccination status.
• The social distance between households during worship and non-worship gatherings will be reduced from 6 feet to 3 feet (so all pews will be open)
• Proof of vaccination will not be required or requested.
• Unless speaking to assembly members from the lectern or Altar, liturgical ministers, including clergy, are required to wear masks while carrying out their ministry less than 6 ft from others (i.e., communion ministers and clergy distributing the Eucharist, ushers greeting people and taking the collection, altar servers, etc.)
• Music ministers do not need to wear masks while singing, if 6 feet from others.
• Assembly may sing with masks while maintaining social distance.
• Visitors to the Rectory Office will be asked to continue masking, keeping adequate distance, and keeping hands clean/sanitized.
• Meetings, events, and receptions will resume at a later date as health guidelines evolve.

The Diocese will continue to evaluate our protocols during the year and is hopeful that we will further loosen restrictions in the future.
