At Easter, Christ the Divine Shepherd Parish and our clergy are overjoyed to welcome back people who have not been attending in-person Masses. Please be advised that due to COVID health and safety measures, masks must be worn on parish property at all times. Social distancing of six feet must be maintained by everyone except those who live in the same household. Please know that every effort is being made to welcome everyone to worship together during this sacred week respectful of the necessary components of social distancing, masks and sanitization.
Due to the need to prevent overcrowding, our parish requires advance sign-ups for each Mass at cdsmph.org/rsvp. At this time, all available seating has been reserved.
In order to accommodate as many people as possible, overflow seating is available in our parking lots as follows: live-streamed Mass at St Bernadette (Easter Vigil at 8:30pm Saturday, and Easter morning at 8:30am) and St Susanna (Easter morning at 11am). In addition, the 11am Mass on Easter at St Susanna will be broadcast via FM radio in the parking lot.
A year ago, the bishops of the dioceses in Pennsylvania lifted the obligation to attend Mass. That provision continues until further notice. If you are not feeling well, are in at at-risk group, or are fearful about going out, please take advantage of the opportunity to watch our livestream Mass at www.cdsmph.org or at our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/ChristTheDivineShepherd).
