Illness Prevention PolicyThe Diocese of Biloxi promulgated an “Illness Prevention Policy” in 2010 that was to remain in effect for the duration of that cold and flu season. We followed up later as concerns continued to be expressed about the potential for spreading illnesses during the celebration of Mass. The Diocese is monitoring the present situation and wishes to emphasize common sense solutions implemented on the parish level, e.g.:
- Parishioners who are ill or suspect they may be contagious are not bound by the Sunday Mass obligation. They should be encouraged to remain at home and return to church when they are well.
- Holy Water fonts are to be drained, cleaned, and re-filled with holy water on a regular basis. Please note that old holy water should be disposed of in the sacrarium or, where one is not available, on the ground.
- Good hygiene, to include an inconspicuous use of hand cleaner prior to distribution of Holy Communion, should be practiced by Clergy and other Ministers.
- Exchanging the Sign of Peace is optional and may be suspended at the discretion of the Priest Celebrant. Parishioners may also be reminded that the sign of peace does not need to be exchanged by means of physical contact, but may be, e.g., verbal or with a bow to those nearby.
- Ministers of Holy Communion are advised to distribute the consecrated Hosts with special care, being cautious not to touch the communicant’s tongue or hand.
- If parishioners are concerned about receiving or spreading illness by partaking of the Precious Blood, they may choose to receive the Body of Christ only, in which we believe is contained the whole Christ.
- If genuine concern arises about the spread of illness in one’s area, the Priest Celebrant may, at his discretion, consecrate only enough wine necessary for him alone to receive the Precious Blood.
