THE SANTISIMO Rosario Parish will resume public Masses for the first time in seven weeks on Sunday, Sept. 19, albeit at limited congregational capacity.
Metro Manila shifted to granular lockdowns and is under Alert Level 4 until September 30.
According to the guidelines of the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases on granular lockdowns, in-person religious gatherings at outdoor venues are allowed at a maximum of 30 percent capacity regardless of the attendees’ vaccination status in areas under Alert Level 4.
Indoor Masses are allowed to accommodate up to 10 percent of the venue seating capacity, but attendance is limited to fully vaccinated individuals.
The Santisimo Rosario Parish Church will hold indoor Masses at 7:30 a.m. every Monday to Saturday, while Sunday outdoor Masses will be held at 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. at the UST P. Noval covered court.
Senior citizens and people aged below 18 will not be allowed to attend the Masses.
Churchgoers will also be required to wear masks and face shields and bring their vaccination cards.
The parish will continue livestreaming its Masses on Facebook.
