It's Sunday Morning, and, I'm Not Able to Attend Church

We had a brief respite from online worship. For almost 2 months, we were part of a church, some of  whose members:

• Voluntarily arrived 1/2 hour before church, masking and gloving
• Met the cars at the gate, and verified that everyone had masks
• Directed arriving parishioners to their spaced-out pews
• Coordinated the flow of parishioners to receive Communion, then quickly exit
• Used disinfectant to clean the pews and all surfaces that could be contaminated

And, a few days ago, we were informed that mass would be suspended for 2 weeks, as COVID had been diagnosed in The Oratory.

I can't blame them for quarantining their members - some of them are older, and have medical problems. I just wish this was over.

So, we'll be home today, and at least for another week. Probably longer - I know how these things go.

I feel embarrassed to be taking this so hard. Other members of the Church worldwide have situations that are far worse - attacks on the way to church, having their churches burned down, punishments by the government for attending or belonging.

This is just a temporary halt. But it disappoints me greatly.

Once we do return, we need to brainstorm to come up with a campaign to get members back in person. We were down to fewer than 1/3 at most masses - some masses had barely 1/4 of the church in attendance. Normally, we were packed to the side benches at most masses.

Not now. It's a ghost town.

And, maybe this is a sign that we need to be doing more in the community to woo those members who have stopped attending, or who were long fallen away. Maybe this is an opportunity to form a New Evangelization Project, that reaches those who need it, but have long been absent.
