Coronavirus Info

Dear St. Martin of Tours Parishioners,

This above is part of a letter I received via email on March 16.

Here are some changes that pertain to our parish specifically, as long as this pandemic persists:

1. The doors of the church will remain open from 7:15 AM until 7:15 PM every day. If you wish to come pray privately, you may do so. However, before entering the church, your hands and person must be clean. Remain at least 6 feet away from any other person in church. I ask, therefore, in order to encourage social distancing, that we all refrain from the temptation to talk in church.
2. I will be celebrating Mass privately at all the usual Mass times. The intentions of all Masses, at the directive of Archbishop, starting March 17, are for “The People.”
3. The intentions which had previously been assigned a date March 17 onward will be rescheduled.
4. During this time, it is at my discretion whether or not to hold baptisms, weddings, and funerals.
5. I will soon determine special times for Adoration and Confession.

Please pray the Holy Rosary for the sick of the world and for an end to the pandemic.

In His Love,
