How to Safely Attend Mass at St. Thomas
How to Safely Attend Mass at St. Thomas
Your health and safety are the highest priority while attending mass at St. Thomas.
Please consider your own health vulnerabilities before signing up for Mass attendance. We will continue to offer a Mass online for all parishioners. If you have recently been in contact with someone who is ill, please consider returning to Mass at a later date and use the online mass option.
Things will look different when you return to St. Thomas. For more information on the procedures, please take a few moments to read through the content on the link below.

1) For the comfort and safety of everyone at Mass, we are asking if you are feeling unwell or have a temperature on the day of Mass (over 100.0) to watch the livestream and come back in the future when you are well.
2) Use the bathroom and wash your hands thoroughly before leaving for Mass, as it is very difficult to maintain social distancing in our restrooms.
3) Arrive at least 15 minutes before Mass time to check in. Doors open 30 minutes before Mass.
4) Wear a mask upon approaching the church and leave it on throughout Mass. Bring your own mask as a mask is required.
5) Have your temperature taken by the greeter with a contactless thermometer.
6) Keep social distance of 6 feet from those not living in your household. The only exception is for receiving Eucharist.
7) Use the provided hand sanitizer upon entering the church and again before receiving Eucharist.
8) Exit the church as directed by ushers, using social distance of 6 feet.
9) Be gracious and patient with the processes designed to safeguard the health of everyone attending Mass. We Are St. Thomas!
