Message from the Vicar General: Our Next Steps
In addition, here are the documents detailing our safety procedures, so that you can familiarize yourself with the precautions that will allow us to work with state and local officials to bring the Mass and sacraments back to the Catholic community in a responsible and expeditious manner.
Thank you for your patience and your faith as we work together to reopen our churches.
Faithfully in Christ,
Reverend Monsignor Joseph P. LaMorte, VG
Vicar General and Moderator of the Curia
