Fear


On Monday morning I met by zoom with the staff of the Catholic churches in our area and in the afternoon with seven priests who make up our support group.  Much of the talk was about when it was safe to open our churches.  The fear of catching Covid-19 is real and well founded.  The list of requirements for preparing churches to reopen is very long.  Old people, especially those with health problems, are especially vulnerable.  So much of this made me think that we should not be in any hurry to open.  It's made me more fearful about my own vulnerability.  Our churches decided to open no sooner than the middle of June.
I will not celebrate Mass outside at least until the churches open for Mass.  I may not start even then.
