Immaculate Heart of Mary Church

EMERGE! DETAILS PAGE

MORE GOOD NEWS!
First, beginning Memorial Day Weekend, we are permitted to stop the distancing between pews so we can move to full capacity and after next weekend no one needs to call and request seating in our parish.

Secondly, the CDC announced that fully vaccinated people no longer need to wear a mask or keep social distancing in most settings. To be clear, fully vaccinated is two weeks after the reception of the second Pfizer or Moderna Vaccine or two weeks after the single Johnson and Johnson Vaccine. People who do not meet those requirements are not considered fully vaccinated, and must keep taking all precautions. If you are not fully vaccinated, please continue to wear a mask. We must continue to do our part to keep the unvaccinated as safe as we possibly can. The State of Pennsylvania has adopted these recommendations effective immediately. The other requirements of sanitization and social distancing remain in place until Memorial Day. Here is a link to the CDC guidance: https://www,cdc,gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/fully-vaccinated-guidance.html

The Confessional has been moved from the cry room area and relocated back to the original confessional area in the Church.
Holy Water is back.
Candles are able to be lit again. Please put your donation in the slot as before.
The Sign of Peace has been restored. Shaking hands, nodding, or verbal are all ways to exchange peace to those around us.
