Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

State of WI Mask Mandate

Governor Evers released several Executive Orders on Thursday, one declaring a Public Health Emergency and another issuing an Emergency Order. The Emergency Order requires individuals to wear face coverings when indoors and not in a private residence (with some exceptions as defined in the order).

Face coverings are now required for anyone (age 5 and older) who attends Mass beginning Saturday, August 1 - per Governor Evers' current Executive Orders.

THANK YOU!

A strong majority of our parishioners have already been wearing masks out of Christian charity and care for one another even before this mandate. As always we will have masks available for those attending Mass.

Communion Services are offered after the 8:30AM Mass. The Communion Services lasts about 5 minutes and may be a more comfortable option for those who are unable or unwilling to wear a mask for the full length of a Mass. Click here to read more information on the Communion Services.

Q: What do I do if I see someone not wearing a mask, even though they should be?

A: Nothing. Some people have conditions or circumstances that would make wearing a cloth face covering difficult or dangerous. Wear your mask, maintain six feet of distancing, and be as kind, welcoming, and hospitable as the current circumstances allow.

Remember: no Catholic is required to receive Holy Communion during the pandemic. The faithful in the Diocese of Green Bay remain dispensed from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass for any reason.

Please review our  Health & Safety Guidelines for Mass at MBS for more information about what to expect when you attend Mass.  

You can also check out this video walk-through of what you can expect when you join us for Sunday and Weekday Masses.

The Sacrament of Reconciliation will be held at the normal times and only at the St. Peter site.

To protect Father, yourself, and other people who will be coming to celebrate reconciliation the following procedure changes are in place:

• Confessions will be heard in the vestibule on High Ave (the back of the church).
• Enter at the rear east door of the church (the handicap entrance). Father Jerry will let you in and let you out.
• Please wait in your car until the previous person has exited.

Please remain in your cars while in the parking lot for any reason (prayer, confession, etc.).
