COVID-19 Update - 9/16/2021
Due to the uptick in COVID 19 infections we are issuing the following guidance...
1. All parishes and schools should FIRST review and follow your public health department guidance. If it is unclear, contact these local health officials directly.
2. The diocese strongly encourages that masks be worn at all times in an indoor setting and in large outdoor gatherings where the 6 foot social distancing cannot be adhered to. This includes Masses, meetings, and appointments.
3. All parishes should continue, or resume, full sanitation practices.
4. Priests, deacons, and Extraordinary Ministers of Holy Communion must wear masks and use hand sanitizer prior to distribution of communion.
5. Should a priest, deacon, or other parish minister have direct contact with a Covid positive person, they should immediately get tested.
Let us remember to always treat others with compassion. When we have love in our hearts and minds, it is easy for us to put the needs of others first. We act without self-interest and always with the goal of helping others out. -
A note on ultraviolet light in the new ceiling fans ...
The near silent ceiling mounted Haiku-UV-C fans, use disinfecting ultraviolet (UV) lights built into the base and aimed up at the ceiling. As the fan circulates air throughout the room, the UV lights kill airborne pathogens that cross their path. As the UV light can be dangerous to eyes if viewed directly, fans direct light to the ceiling. The manufacturer released results of a study from Innovative Bioanalysis, a California lab that tested the fan against the coronavirus this April. The testing report ,written by Kevin Noble, COO of Innovative Bioanalysis, states, “It can be concluded that between 10 and 20 minutes there was an overall [pathogen] reduction of 99.99 per cent or greater.” Thank you to everyone for your good spirits and continual cooperation.
