Message to Pastors Re. Blizzard

January 28, 2022

A Message from Bishop Uglietto:

As you make preparations for the approaching storm this weekend, we encourage you to prioritize safety for your parishioners, staff and yourselves. Please do not hesitate to make a decision on Masses and events sooner rather than later if the forecast persists as currently reported. You should consider using your parish website, social media, email and any other forms of communication to reach your parishioners and staff. Also follow your local city and town restrictions regarding travel.

Risk Management provided guidance earlier this week for advance preparations. Those guidelines continue and will be updated accordingly.

Technology has made it possible to reach our people quickly. We learned during the pandemic that we have the ability to continue to minister to our Catholic family in new and proactive ways.

We pray for your safety and all the people of the Commonwealth as this dangerous storm approaches.

God bless.

Bishop Uglietto
