The reopening plans must follow The Archdiocese of Chicago's mandated procedures. Seating in the church is limited, and the procedures for entering, exiting and communion are in order to meet social distancing guidelines. Services will require pre-registration to ensure that everyone attending can be accomodated and to provide a means for contact tracing in the event that we are made aware that someone who has attended a service has become ill.

Your attendance at these events is at your own risk. 

Please park in the west parking lot and follow the signs to enter the building. If a line forms, maintain a 6-foot distance from other parishioners.
  
Please arrive a few minutes in advance of the starting time of the service as the registration chjeck and seating will take some time. We will begin seating 30 minutes prior to the start time of the service. If you feel ill in any way or if you have symptoms of COVID-19 (fever, dry cough, difficulty breathing, loss of taste, etc.), please cancel your reservation and do not attend.

Face masks are required to be properly worn at all times by anyone over the age of two. Your hands will be sprayed with hand sanitizer. An Usher will escort you to your seat. Seats will be filled from the front of the church to the back, you can not choose your seat. Seating in the "Mother's Room" will not be available. Please sit in the area of the pew marked with a blue cross in order to maintain social distancing. If a family (all persons must be domiciled together) is seated together, they will occupy 1 pew, otherwise each pew can accomodate two people, 6 feet apart.

Once you are seated, you are expected to remain seated for the entire service. Please use the restroom before being seated. If you need to use the restroom, during the service, you will not be able to return to your seat. Parents, keep this in mind before allowing your children to go to the restroom.

Communion will be conducted two sections at a time such that social distancing is maintained. You must wait until an Usher calls you forward to communion. As you exit the pew, your hands will be sprayed with hand sanitizer. Rub your hands together to dry them before reaching the priest or deacon. Do not touch anything such as the pews, your clothing or face after your hands have been sanitized. Maintain a 6-foot distance, using the markings on the floor as a guide.
