St. John Catholic Church continues to follow the protocols set up by the CDC’s document, “Considerations for Communities of Faith” (updated October 29, 2020), in addition to the protocols of the Diocese of Lansing, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, the Thomistic Institute, and the Livingston County Health Department.
These best practices help us to navigate safely our Communal Spiritual Life
in the midst of the Covid-19 Global Pandemic.
With current regulations in place, the Celebration of Public Mass in-person
is considered SAFER than going to a grocery store, a building supply store,
a movie theater, a casino, and indoor sporting event, or a restaurant.
To date, in the 10 County Diocese of Lansing, there have been no
reported incidents of any Covid-19 super spreader events.
