Parish Re-Opening Plan
Welcome Home! We're excited to re-open our church and worship together. At this time, we are allowed a maximum of 50 parishioners at Mass, with appropriate distance at all times, masks for all, and sanitation precautions in all areas. We have two Mass times, Saturday at 5 pm, and Sunday at 9:30 am, both in St. Norbert Church. We will continue to LiveStream and Record Mass, so you can always watch from home, if you are unable to join us. The obligation to attend Mass remains suspended indefinitely for everyone. Each person is free to decide what is best and safest for you and your family.
Invitation to reserve a seat are sent via E-news Mailing List to parishioners. The invitation contains the Link to SignUpGenius. Each member of your family who plans to attend must be registered in SignUpGenius, so that we can have an accurate count. We also need to know who is present, on the chance that we need to 'contact trace' in the future, and notify parishioners of any risk. After signing up, please print the confirmation from SignUpGenius and bring it to Mass with you. We ask that you arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the start of Mass, as the seating procedure takes some time. If you do not arrive by the time Mass begins, you may forfeit your spot. Entrance is only through the Main Front doors of St. Norbert Church. Once you have secured your place for Mass, please watch the short video we have prepared for our parishioners. You may recognize some masked faces! VIDEO.
Also, read the brochure from the Archdiocese on Parishioner Reopening Guide: What to Expect. It can be found below. This will be given to you as you enter the church. If you have parishioner friends who do not use a computer, please let them know that there are a limited number of seats that may be reserved by calling Tracy at the parish office between 9 am and noon on Friday. (847) 272-7090. No messages may be left; parishioners must speak to Tracy. We also need volunteers to Greet parishioners and guide them to the appropriate seating. Training is required for volunteers in advance.
We expect some 'bumps in the road' as we travel together, and appreciate your patience as we learn together. We look forward to seeing those of you who are able to come to Mass and to 'seeing' those who will join us online!
