COVID-19 Updates

Following the guidance of Bishop Parkes and the protocols of the State of Georgia we are implementing the following:

The wearing of masks inside the church and other buildings is still highly encouraged.
Holy water is returned to the entrances and will be refreshed each day.
We are returning to the sign of peace. For those outside of your household please consider a wave, nod or bow instead of a handshake.
We are returning the missalettes and hymnals to the pews. Handling and use of the hymnal is left to the individual.

Bishop Parkes has issued the following statement in response to Pope Francis' motu proprio Traditionis Custodes. You can read it here. Please pray for guidance from the Holy Spirit for the Holy Father, Bishop Parkes and the shepherds of the Church as they work to guide us.

We are 101% of our goal!
Thank you for all that have given or pledged!
