Our  Masses have resumed..   Occupancy on both weekend and weekday Masses will be 33% of Church capacity (although a NY State Judge said 50%).    The obligation to attend Mass has been suspended by Cardinal Dolan.   Those who feel in any way sick (e.g. oral temperature higher than 99.5 degrees, cough, chills, muscle aches, headache, sore throat or new loss of taste or smell) or who are worried about attendance, should not enter the church.  In addition, those who are at highter risk for COVID-19 (i.e. those who are older than 65 or have underlying health conditions) are urged not to come to Church for Mass.
