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.
