Mask use in our parish church is optional but recommended. Masks are recommended in order to protect the more vulnerable in our community, like children and those with compromised immunities. If you are sick in any way or even feeling a little “under the weather,” please stay home! Our concern is for your good health and the good health of those in the pews around you. Thank you.

The word “narrow” is generally pejorative (having negative connotations or implying disapproval). We like to think of ourselves as broad-minded, don’t we? No one wants to be considered narrow-minded.
