Phase 2 - Reopening for Mass ONLY

Information and Guidelines

as of May 29, 2020

(all other areas of the parish campus will remain closed to the public at this time, including the parish offices, Mater Dei Chapel, Kairos Gift Shop and Outreach Ministry and Food Pantry)

While the church is closed, phone calls to the parish office (702-228-8311) and emails to seaschurch@seaslv.org will be answered in a timely manner. Live-streaming of Masses and services can be viewed here at our website. Our live stream schedule it posted above.

As we enter the beginning of Phase 2 of our reopening process, please remember that Bishop Thomas’ Dispensation for attending Sunday Mass is still in effect until further notice. We encourage the elderly, those in a vulnerable position with health concerns, or those still not comfortable with public gatherings to continue participating in

live-streamed Masses from your home.

If you would like to join us for Mass and to receive Communion, we have specific guidelines and protocols that all must follow. If you are unwilling or unable to cooperate with these guidelines, we ask that you please stay at home and participate online.

While we are happy to begin this Phase 2 initial process to opening up our church, please remember that the limitations and guidelines are in place because we care about the safety and health of all who come through our doors.

Those limitations only allow a total of 50 persons in our worship space per Mass. During Phase 2 our parish offices, gift shop, outreach, and meeting rooms will remain closed to the public.

Due to the current Phase 2 limitations of only 50 people which includes all ministers as well, we will take Mass attendance reservations by phone at 702-228-8311 for one Sunday Mass and one Weekday Mass per household each week beginning on the Monday before the following weekend. Our phone systems are not like those of large corporations, so we ask you to please be patient and charitable as we do our best to respond to your calls. We will continue to follow our current schedule of Masses unless this needs to be adjusted in the future.

A new reservation must be made for each week, one week at a time during this Phase 2. Reservations can only be made by speaking to one of our staff members over the phone at 702-228-8311 during regular office hours and will be made on a first-call, first-served basis. Voicemails will be returned as soon as possible to discuss possible reservations. Due to the limitations, voicemails cannot be used to make a reservation. Remember, due to our attendance restrictions during Phase 2, only those who have made prior confirmed phone reservations will be admitted. We will not be able to admit any

walk-ins during Phase 2.

Before making a reservation, everyone must agree to the following requirements:

• Since we will continue to live-stream Masses during Phase 2, everyone who attends a live-streamed Mass gives their consent to be filmed and recorded for the live stream presentation and subsequent use on social media platforms.

• All participants over the age of 10 are required to wear face coverings or masks while on parish property. Parents of children under the age of 10 are to use their discretion for the use of masks for their minor children under 10.

• No one will be admitted until the doors are open, fifteen minutes prior to your reserved Mass time. Please remember we need time before and after every Mass to disinfect our building. Once Mass begins, the church doors will be closed and no one will be able to enter while Mass is in progress, even if you have a reservation, so please be on time.
  

• Social distancing must always be observed while waiting to check-in.

• Everyone will have their temperature screened when they check-in.

• All participants must use hand sanitizer, either your own or that provided by the church, before entering the worship space.

• Collection baskets will be placed near the entrance to the worship space for your continued support. Please have your donation ready. There will be no collection during the Mass.

• There will continue to be no holy water as you enter or exit the church.

• Everyone will be directed by one of our hospitality ministers to an available seat, arranged to honor social distancing protocols. Please do not ask for any special seating selections. Every other pew will remain empty.

• There will be no Sign of Peace.

• Communion will be offered as usual with strict adherence to social distance guidelines. Your face covering must remain in place until after you say Amen. Then you may remove your mask. For your safety, Communion will be distributed in the hand.
  

• At the end of Mass, please remain in your pew until you are directed to leave by our hospitality ministers. Please follow the marked route for exiting the building.

• We ask all attendees to go directly to their vehicles after Mass and avoid congregating anywhere on the parish property.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding, and most of all, for your kind and affirming thoughts and prayers during these difficult times. May God bless you for your goodness!

SAFEVOICE

Mobile App

Students, parents and faculty throughout Nevada now have access to SafeVoice, an anonymous reporting system used to report threats to the safety or well-being of students. SafeVoice was established by the Nevada Department of Education under SB 212 in 2017 to protect student wellness, prevent violence and save lives. In partnership with the Nevada Department of Public Safety, the SafeVoice program provides students a safe place to submit tips concerning their own safety or that of others. A fully trained professional team of experts responds in an appropriate manner 24/7/365. Tips always stay anonymous. Learn more at http://safevoicenv.org.

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic School is fully accredited by the Western Catholic Educational Association (WCEA). Having completed our most recent WCEA school visit on March 7, 2018, we wish to share our "Report of Findings" with the entire parish and school community.

Click here to view the report.

Areas assessed include: involvement of shareholders, use of prior accreditation findings, assessment of the school’s Catholic identity, defining the school’s purpose, data analysis and use, acceptable progress by all students, curriculum and instruction, support for student spiritual and academic growth, resource management and development, and the capacity to implement and monitor an action plan.

At St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, we believe that continuing evaluation and improvement of the curriculum is essential to the development of an effective educational program that promotes a lifelong love of learning. The accreditation process is more than a stamp of approval or quality assurance. It is a collaborative results-oriented school improvement process that serves as the underpinning of an effective school.
