St. Augustine’s Prayer to the Holy Spirit
Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit, that my thoughts may
all be holy. Act in me, O Holy Spirit, that my work,
too, may be holy. Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit, that
I love but what is holy. Strengthen me, O Holy Spirit,
to defend all that is holy. Guard me, then, O Holy
Spirit, that I always may be holy.
Amen.

Safety Guidelines for Resuming Masses for I.C. and S.S. Churches
All parishioners attending Mass at I.C. and S.S. Churches are asked to adhere to
the following guidelines and procedures. All are asked to carefully read through
the following information:
Observe 6-ft. Minimum distancing; only every 3rd row of pews can be
occupied to ensure safe distances.
Both churches are allowed 25% seating capacity which is 100 people per
Mass. Ushers will be at the doors to enforce these limits.
Purify hands before entering and upon exiting the church with available
sanitizers at the church entrances.
Wear a mask, covering the mouth and nose, prior to entering the church and
until after leaving the church.
Avoid shaking hands, hugging, or other close contact with individuals who
are not members of one’s household. No gatherings after Mass are
permitted.
Catholics throughout the Archdiocese should watch tutorial videos
provided by the ArchKCK on their website pertaining to hand sanitization
practices.
For those receiving Holy Communion, forming a single line, approach the
priest only one pew at a time, always observing the 6-ft. minimum distancing
between individuals who are not members of the same household and
observing the mask usage practices.
Ushers will be the first to receive Holy Communion and then they will guide
each pew to approach the priest to receive Holy Communion.
Congregational singing is suspended to limit droplet dispersion.
The Sacred Host will be carefully “dropped” into a cupped hand of the
communicant, avoiding skin-to-skin contact between priest and
communicant. Communicants will NOT be able to receive the Sacred Host
on the tongue. A Spiritual Communion is encouraged for those not receiving
Communion.
Please limit the usage of the Cry Room due to the traffic for the restroom.
** Information from Archdiocese of Kansas City, KS ** Pandemic Advisory Body
The Archdiocese has established a Pandemic Advisory Group which includes physicians and infection control specialists with Catholic practices. They serve to advise our
Archbishop on best practices for safely conducting religious services while minimizing the spread of the virus.
Those Who Have Symptoms
Out of charity and concern for the welfare of others, anyone with any kind of acute symptoms, a fever, or recent exposure to an infected person should not
attend religious services.
Limit Density Gatherings Parishioners are encouraged to attend Mass at the parish in which they are registered or
which they normally attend. Parish “hopping” should be avoided so as to allow every parish their limited capacity to serve their parishioners. Once your church has met the maximum
capacity, individuals may be asked to attend an alternate Mass. Congregating in any manner following Mass is not permitted.
Dispensation from Sunday Obligation
So that Catholics do not feel compelled to attend Mass during the ongoing pandemic, the dispensation given by the Archbishop from the obligation for Catholics to attend
Sunday Mass will remain in effect until it is safe to revoke it: Persons with higher vulnerability to the virus, for personal safety reasons, are
strongly encouraged to take advantage of the dispensation and refrain from attending public Mass.
Please View ArchKCK Tutorial Videos: www.https://archkcks.com/coronavirus/resuming-mass

A Note from Fr. Ray May— This Sunday we celebrate Pentecost, Jesus’s gift of the Holy Spirit to us. Not only has the Lord given us the hope of eternal life, but he has poured that life into us even now. In the Spirit, the Father and the Son have come to dwell in us. May we do nothing, through sin, to sadden him. If we do sin, we should avail ourselves of the sacrament of reconciliation.The Spirit is our advocate – our helper. As our helper, we may and should commend to him our difficulties and concerns. The Spirit is also our guide. We should be ever vigilant to his promptings – especially to prayer. ~~Fr. Ray *************************************************
Prayer of Spiritual Communion My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all
things and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there, and
unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
+ Amen.
