Important News
Quote from Bishop Braxton's Letter:
In order to help slow the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in our community, I am now directing you to suspend all public celebrations of the Eucharist in the Diocese of Belleville effective immediately. This directive will remain in effect until personally rescinded or changed by me.
Because of the rapidly changing mandates from local, state, and federal governments as well as health officials, this is necessarily an evolving situation which may require re-evaluation and adjustment in the weeks ahead. Social distancing and proper hygiene will diminish communal transmission and flatten the curve of the virus, thus sparing us the stringent requirements of “lockdown” and “sheltering in place.”
