******************************************** MASSES RESUME! ****************************************

On May 16-17, we began celebrating Mass at Wolf Creek, Saturdays 3:00 pm, and at OLV Saturdays 6:00 pm, Sundays 8:00 am and 10:00 am. We will continue streaming the 10:00 am Mass.

There will also be Mass and reconciliation at OLV Wednesdays 6:30 pm. Please note: Only the lector and bread baking schedules are activated at this time.

Other ministry and server schedules will continue on hold until further notice.

There are guidelines to follow so that we are in compliance with state and diocesan requirements. The following plan has been approved by the Bishop.

Mass will be celebrated in the Faith Formation Center

Social distancing of 6 feet MUST be maintained and managed when entering and leaving the church and with seating between non-family members. Chairs will be appropriately spaced.

Hymnals will not be used - instrumental music only

People may wear masks

Baskets for offerings are available at the entrance

We will be sanitizing after each Mass

Please know that the obligation to attend Sunday Mass continues to be suspended. People who feel sick should remain at home as should vulnerable and at-risk populations. Please join the streaming Mass.

We believe that we have adequate seating. But if we have to turn folks away once we have reached our "safe" capacity, we ask for your understanding. You can read the Bishop's documents at https://diocesehelena.org/ or

on their Facebook page, Roman Catholic Diocese of Helena.
