On Monday, March 23^rd at 9pm, All pastors received the following update of guidelines that are now being followed in the Archdiocese.
 
As events and guidelines continue to unfold, and in keeping with the civil requirements for physical distancing, the following health and safety measures are to be observed in all the parishes and institutions within the archdiocese, effective March 24, 2020.
 
1. Baptisms administered by the ordinary minister of the sacrament within the parish setting are to be deferred, except in case of emergency. In these extreme instances, the faithful should contact a priest immediately.
 
2. Funeral Masses or services in the church or funeral home will no longer be conducted until further notice. Limiting the funerals to ten people has proven not to be feasible and caused problems for many priests. Burial prayers may be said in an open-air setting in a cemetery, as long as proper distancing of the ten people allowed by state regulation is maintained. They may not be held in a mortuary chapel. The family is to be assured that a memorial Mass will be offered as soon as possible after restrictions are lifted. Weddings also will no longer be peritted until further notice.
 
3.  If a pastor chooses to keep the parish church open for prayer: 

• Definite hours must be announced. (Here at Immaculate, the Church is open daily from 7 am to 5 pm).
• No public ceremonies such as the Mass or group devotions may take place so as to prevent any assembling of people.
• The church must be cleaned and sanitized frequently in accord with the guidelines to prevent infection. (Here at Immaculate this is done frequently).

• Fr. Herbert DeGaris

• Until further notice all Sunday and weekday public Masses are canceled.

• The church is open daily from 7am to 5 pm for private prayer. Please be aware of ‘social distance’ so that if other people are present in the church, there is at least six feet of distance between you and them.

• The Archdiocese has announced all Catholic Schools will remain closed until Monday, April 20th. Because of that, I do not see our School of Religion Program back until that week, Tuesday April 21^st and Thursday April 23^rd.  Of course, if dates change, you will be notified immediately.

Article from the Catholic New York
 

Immaculate Conception Parish is a Christian community of disciples in the Roman Catholic tradition, called by Jesus, united in Eucharistic worship and growing in faith, hope and love. Nourished through the sacraments and strengthened by God’s transforming love, we are empowered to know the gospel message and to witness to others. As Christian stewards, we are thankful for God’s many gifts and we commit ourselves to share our time, talent and treasure in Christ-like service within our parish community and beyond. We seek God’s blessing and guidance to be faithful to this mission.
