Dear Parishioners,
I pray that you and your loved ones are safe and healthy. I would like to thank all of you for your assistance in helping us to implement health protocols as we celebrate safely together.
Over the past 24 hours, we have learned that a person who attended 5:00pm mass on Sunday, January 29, 2022, has tested positive for Covid-19. The individual was wearing a mask and appropriately distanced throughout their time at church, following our health and safety protocols.
While the case presents a low risk of transmission, I wanted to be transparent with all of you. More than ever, especially with the very contagious Omicron variant, if you are experiencing any Covid-19 symptoms, please stay at home and limit contact with others. Anyone experiencing symptoms should consider a rapid antigen test, PCR test or consult with your family doctor. At this time, we ask that all parishioners continue to self-monitor for symptoms.
A self-assessment tool can be found by visiting: https://covid-19.ontario.ca/self-assessment/. Questions can also be directed to York Region Public Health at 1-800-361-5653.
Let us continue to pray for all those who are sick and those who are caring for them. Should there be any additional updates, we will keep you informed. Be assured of my prayer for the good health of all. May God continue to bless you now and always.
Rev. Dominic Barber, Pastor
