Archbishop Pérez has announced the resumption of public Mass. We at Saint Andrew Catholic Church are ecstatic to welcome you back! Although Bucks County has been promoted to the Green Phase, all of us must continue to do our part to make sure that our return to Mass is safe and peaceful. We ask that you follow these guidelines when attending Mass:

1. The faithful continue to be dispensed from the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation.2. Please stay home if you are sick or are at a higher risk of severe illness with COVID19.

3. Sunday Mass will continue to be available via live stream at 10:30AM on our website and YouTube.

BEFORE COMING TO CHURCHWash hands for twenty (20) seconds using soap and water. Face masks or cloth covering must be worn before entering.

ENTERING THE CHURCHParishioners will enter the Church through the main entrance doors. Side doors are only accessible to Parishioners

that need to use the side ramp. Accommodations will be made in those situations ONLY. Please use the hand sanitizer stations at Church entrances upon entering and exiting the Church.

SEATING AT THE CHURCHWhen taking your seat, please honor all posted signs and guidelines about where to sit. Seating will be limited to 50-75%

of total occupancy. Members of the same household may sit together as normal; should plan to arrive together. There will be no “saving” seats for family/friends. Doing so eliminates “stepping over“ other Parishioners, and limits exposure.

Please place six feet between your household and members of a different household. *You are not mandated to wear a mask while seated, but it is strongly encouraged.*

DURING MASSThe musical portion of the Mass remains modified. Singing will occur, but it will be limited. We will have three baskets for collections. Specific procedures for collection will be announced during Masses. Until further notice, the following will not

take place during Mass: Sign of Peace, distribution of The Precious Blood, or holding of hands during the Lord’s Prayer.

RECEPTION OF HOLY COMMUNIONThe procedure for receiving Holy Communion will be as follows: receive by leaving the pews one pew at a time (observe

safe distancing); come up with your MASK ON, and receive the host IN HAND; step to the side, remove mask and consume the host, then immediately replace mask; return to your pew in an orderly manner.

If you are not receiving, please follow in line with hands folded in form of worship.

EXITING THE CHURCHAt the conclusion of Mass, we will dismiss Parishioners by pew, starting at the back of the Church. Exit ONLY through the

side doors. Offerings can be left in one of the baskets upon exiting. Please do not congregate in the Church.

BAPTISMSBaptisms will be performed at 2:00PM on Sunday. Only parents and Godparents are permitted in the first pew. Please limit

guests to twenty-five (25). All guests must wear masks. Each child will have their own baptismal font.

scholarships to graduating High School seniors throughout Pennsylvania.

The 2021 Mass Book is open. *Selections will be made on a first-come, first-served basis.*

Please Note: only one (1) person will be permitted into the Parish Office at a time and those waiting outside will need to form a line. There is a limit of five (5) Announced Masses and the stipend is $10.00 for each Mass.

The office is observing Summer Hours and will be closed from Noon-1:00PM for lunch and closing Mondays through Thursdays at 4:30PM. The reception area is closed on Fridays until August 28TH.

We still have eighteen (18) Announced Mass Cards for 2020 with various dates from November through December. All are 7:00AM weekday Masses.
