Parishioners in churches under the jurisdiction of the Archdiocese of Manila are encouraged to still wear facemasks inside the church as a precautionary measure against Covid-19.
In a circular addressed to all the clergy in the archdiocese, Fr. Carmelo P. Arada, Jr., vice chancellor of the Archdiocese of Manila said, parish goers, must be encouraged to still wear facemasks inside the church and in other liturgical events “in consideration of the elderly and the vulnerable.”
“The Archdiocesan Liturgical Commission and the Ministry on Health Care of the Archdiocese of Manila request that we continue to encourage our parishioners to wear face masks in our churches during liturgical celebrations and other gatherings in compassionate regard to the elderly and the vulnerable,” said Fr. Arada in his circular.
“The pandemic difficulties stirred us to take care of each other and by this, we will be known that we are disciples of the Lord,” he added. With more people vaccinated against the coronavirus, the government has allowed the voluntary wearing of facemasks whether indoors or outdoors except in hospitals, medical facilities, and public utility vehicles.
