Diocese of Portland Updates Protocols for Maine Churches May 21, 2021
The Diocese of Portland has announced major updates to the pandemic protocols currently in place at all 141 Catholic churches in Maine.
The following actions take effect on Monday, May 24:
Masks are no longer required for any person at any time, inside or outside the churches.
Capacity limits, advance registration, and the gathering of contact tracing information for those attending Masses are eliminated.
Pew seating arrangements to establish six or more feet of distance between each person/family are eliminated. Those attending Masses are welcome to sit where they are comfortable. All pews will be available for seating.
The distribution of Holy Communion to the homebound is restored.
Indoor choir practices can be held without distancing.
For those not yet comfortable with a return to Mass, many churches will provide spaces in other areas, like parish halls, for additional, spread out seating during Masses. The extensive livestreaming schedule at Maine parishes will also remain in place. Moving forward, adjustments to the schedule will be made in the “Parishes and Mass Times” section of www.portlanddiocese.org. The obligation to attend Mass will continue to be dispensed for the foreseeable future. “The strict adherence to state and diocesan guidelines has led to the successful operation of our churches since last June. I am so grateful for the many staff, volunteers, and parishioners who sacrificed and followed the protocols to ensure that Maine Catholics were able to participate in Mass and receive the Eucharist over the last year,” said Bishop Robert Deeley. “The Catholic Church always works to guide those it encounters to live in harmony and peace. We hope that by continuing to offer a variety of ways to participate in Mass and through updating these protocols, all will feel welcomed to grow in their faith together in Christ.”

FAITH FORMATION Today we celebrate the Most Holy Trinity. The Gospel tells us that Jesus gave his disciples the power to baptize people everywhere in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Jesus also told his disciples to pass along the power by teaching others what he had taught them. When we pray the sign of the cross, or Glory Be, we are reminded of our own baptism and how we too are called to be disciples and spread the Good News of Jesus Christ.
If it isn’t only for people who are dying, when should someone receive the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick?
One of the unfortunate realities in the Church today is that so few people understand the meaning and value of the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick, largely because so many people still mistakenly think of this sacrament as “Last Rites” or “Extreme Unction.” In his life and ministry, Jesus healed the sick. In this sacrament, the Church continues the healing mission of Jesus and, in hope, prays that God will grant healing to the person who is suffering. But even if there is no physical healing, the sacrament offers spiritual healing through the Holy Spirit’s gifts of peace and courage. And so, anyone who is living with serious illness (including emotional or psychological illness) and the elderly are encouraged to celebrate this sacrament when it is needed. The ritual for Anointing of the Sick does also include special prayers and blessings for those who are facing death, including viaticum (communion given to the dying, trusting that the Lord Jesus will be their companion along the way, as they make their final journey).

Are you Considering Senior Living? I had some concerns, as I suspect most people entering senior living may have, regarding our social lives and whether we would develop friends here. Not only have my wife and I been able
to“ maintain existing relationships but we have met several new people here… people we now
consider to be our friends. The life enrichment program is designed to nurture interaction between people. The hostess in the Main Dining Room seats new guests with compatible table mates and within days, individuals become neighbors and friends. The floor“ we live on has become our new neighborhood. The people living here seem to understand that all of us have been new to The Park Danforth at some point. Everyone is so friendly here. My wife and I could not feel more at home.
