Sunday, March 8, 2020 5:00 pm Mass - Homily by Father Aldrin Tayag on "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased, listen to him."

Due to the heightened public awareness of the possibility of an outbreak of the "corona virus" locally, I have decided today that we at Mary Queen will profit from putting into place procedures during the liturgy that will prepare us in case that there is a need for even greater health precautions to be taken. Therefore, I have decided that the attached measures, borrowed from the Archdiocese of Chicago, be implemented at Mary Queen liturgies immediately. I have asked Father Aldrin to be in charge of overseeing their implementation. Please address any questions regarding implementation to him, and make all necessary communications with the ministers and assembly. Thanks, Fr. Dan - Click on headline for details.
