Let's Return to Mass and Stay Healthy

Then we should - lower our mask - place the Host in our mouth and - then cover our face again - We will return to our seats. The ushers will help us

We should stay home if we feel ill in any way

From the St. Edward's Parish Nurse Ministry

We should all wear face coverings during Mass during the entire service.&nbsp;

Also, we shouldn’t use the restrooms unless it’s a genuine emergency, because the bathroom is a place where COVID 19 can be spread easily.&nbsp;

We should not hold hands during the Our Father and only wave during the Sign of Peace

We should - follow the usher's direction to stand in line for communion - receive Communion in our hands - step to the side

Finally, we should sanitize our hands after Mass and when we get home, wash and air-dry any cloth face coverings.&nbsp;

Unfortunately, we can’t hang around in the church before or after Mass is done.&nbsp;

BUT, we could stand outside in the church yard, wearing our face coverings, standing 6 feet apart to chat for a while.&nbsp;

We are so glad we can worship together soon!&nbsp;

I’m sure we’ve all heard that Coronavirus (COVID 19) is a new virus to which none of us is yet protected. It is easily spread in an infected person’s breath and anything the infected person's breath may have come into contact with. While it can infect everyone, old and young, those over 65 and those with health conditions are more prone to a worse case of the disease.

That is why it’s important for ALL of us to adopt new health habits when attending Mass to protect EVERYONE

We should only receive Communion in our hands.&nbsp;

If you feel unable to receive communion in the hand, please speak with Fr. Scott by phone in advance of Mass.

- We must go to the website&nbsp;<a href="http://stedwardbowie.com/">stedwardbowie.com</a> &lt;<a href="http://stedwardbowie.com/">http://stedwardbowie.com</a>&gt; to register for the Mass we would like to attend. - This is because our seating will be limited. - The process of seating people, so we are spread out, will take time so we should arrive approximately 30 minutes early.

Members of the St. Edward's Parish Nurse Ministry

We’re all so excited that we can return to Mass, but we wanted to share information that help keep us all safe and healthy.

We should sanitize our hands as we enter the church and then we must sit far apart from each other. At least 6 feet from each other.&nbsp; The ushers will help us find our seats

Hi! I'm Cynthia Williams, Coordinator of the St. Edward's Parish Nurse Ministry. I'd like to introduce you to our ministry and our health care providers.
