Public Health Orders Update as of October 4, 2021
 
Faith-based gatherings are permitted for up to 33 % of a church’s capacity or 25 people, whichever is greater, if proof of vaccination of all people cannot be assured. However, by the decision of the Archdiocese, parishes will not require the faithful to present proof of vaccination. These changes in capacity (lowering to 33% from 50%) do not reduce our current capacity of about 95 people, physically distanced, in the worship space.
 
Attendance is still on a first come, first-seated basis. Indoor weddings, funerals, prayer vigils for the deceased and baptisms are limited to 25 persons or 25 % of the capacity of the premises, whichever is lower.
 
For further information, read the Diocesan Health Measures and Protocols for Religious Services or go to archsaintboniface.ca to view the document.
