We write to reassure you that, having studied today’s announcement from the Government of Ontario, our churches may remain open under Amber protocols as we enter into Thanksgiving weekend. As always, be sure to keep up-to-date on conditions in your local public health region—and remember that face masks, hand sanitizing, physical distancing and contact tracing are the best tools we have to keep everyone safe.
A blessed Thanksgiving to all, and thank you for your faithful leadership in parish ministries across our diocese.
