DEAR CCC FAMILY

Praise be the Lord! There is reason to rejoice! As you might be aware, Cardinal DiNardo has now allowed us to celebrate public Masses (Please see Cardinal’s letter). This does not mean that we are back to “business as usual” but the sacraments of the Eucharist, Penance, Weddings and Baptisms can now be made available.
The health and safety of our members / attendees is a top priority at the Catholic Charismatic Center. We want to protect you by following the guidelines provided by the government and the Archdiocese and so do our part to prevent the spread of the virus. In order to do this, we need to acquire supplies, for i.e. disinfectants, hand sanitizers, etc. and put together a “pandemic response team”. Therefore, we will be resuming Sunday Mass on May the 10^th, 2020. At this time, we will be offering only the following Masses.

 
Pray with us so that we can determine how we will reassume our daily Mass schedule in a few weeks.

So as to ensure your health and well-being, we are enacting the following measures:

• During the pandemic, the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days remains suspended. This means attendees 65 years and above, persons with underlying risk health conditions, and those who choose to avoid contact with other people, are encouraged to stay home and watch services online.
• The Center can only admit into every Eucharistic Celebration 25% of the sanctuary’s capacity. This means we can only allow in the sanctuary 625 persons.
• Proper social distance (six feet) must be maintained at all times.
• Please enter the Catholic Charismatic Center through the main doors of the building. .
• Specific pews will be designated to ensure adequate space between members/Center attendees. Our ushers will guide you to the appropriate pew. Please do not be offended if we ask you to move to a different pew. Families may sit together, but they must maintain proper social distance (six feet) from persons of a different household.
• Priests, staff, volunteers and those attending the Eucharistic Celebration are required to wear a mask to cover mouth and nose (this applies for everyone over the age of 10). Greeters will have hand sanitizer available at your disposal when you enter the building. You may use your own.
• Collection will not be taken up during Mass, but baskets will be available at the Sanctuary exit doors after the Mass. We encourage you to use online giving as it will be safer for the volunteers and easier for you. Visit cccgh.com (and click “”) or call 713 236 9977 in case you need guidance in how to donate online.
• We are observing no holding hands during the prayer of the Our Father and no-contact sign of peace. You can simply incline your head towards the people around you as a gesture of peace.
• Holy Communion will only be distributed by the priests/deacon and everyone will receive communion only on the hand. Please do not lower your mask in front of the priest but step aside and then consume the Body of Christ.
• Everyone must wait until Mass is over to hear proper instructions on how to leave the main sanctuary. We will leave in an orderly manner by calling each section. Please note: Pews, restrooms, surfaces, door knobs, etc. will be disinfected after each Mass. In all charity, we ask you please not to stay in the foyer so that our volunteers can do their job.
• Information regarding confession hours and appropriate times to come to Church for personal prayer will be communicated after the Mass.

Brothers and sisters, during these difficult times, the Catholic Charismatic Center Community remains united in the mission of sharing the Good News of the Kingdom with others. Whether you join us in person or remain connected with us in spirit, know that I am thinking of you and praying for you daily. I ask that you join me in remembering in prayer all those impacted by the virus and all the essential workers serving on the frontlines of this pandemic.                         

I miss you and look forward to seeing you back at the Center!

Sincerely yours in Christ,
Fr. Jorge Alvarado, CC
