Northern Health has recently issued a new order that supersedes the previous instructions provided by Dr. Henry to the diocese.

No prayer groups or other gatherings may take place on church properties.

This order will remain in effect until November 19th or until the Regional Medical Health Officer orders otherwise.

We realize that these are very difficult restrictions. We have consulted broadly and have determined that we have very limited recourse.

Bishop Jensen appreciates the continued patience and cooperation of everyone and asks that the needs of the diocese and all of our parishes and missions are remembered in your prayers.
