RESUMPTION OF PARISH ACTIVITIES We need no words to state the seriousness of the crisis of the coronavirus. We are aware of the sacrifices we must continue to take in order to play our part in slowing its spread, saving lives and enabling the health system to continue its vital work. Accordingly, Corpus Christi is not resuming regularly scheduled parish activities until further notice, including religious education, faith formation, ministry events and social gatherings.
