Adoration Chapel During COVID-19 Restrictions
The adoration chapel is not being closed at this time. It is being treated in the same manner as a snow situation is handled. If you are in a vulnerable heath or age category, and don't feel you should go, or you can't attend, then don't go. The person with the hour before you will cover the monstrance.
I am asking that only adorers with assigned hours be in the chapel during the quarantine. This is for the health and safety of you and your family, and for the health of people with assigned adoration hours.
You may open the glass doors during your hour for ventilation. Please use the restroom in the chapel, as it will be cleaned daily. The church restrooms are closed.

Ushers Needed
Please contact the parish office if you are willing to serve as an usher at daily or weekend Mass.
We need to have 3 or 4 ushers at every Sunday Mass and 1 usher at every daily Mass.
The ushers will assist people to their seat and to Holy Communion in keeping with the social-distancing guidelines. The ushers will also monitor the stationary basket for drop-in donations at the back of church. We will develop an usher schedule for those who volunteer. Ushers will also sanitize the church after Mass. -

Confessions Resumed on Saturday, May 2nd
As we all know, we are still under phase one restrictions under the "Stay Home, Save Lives" mandate here in Oregon, but as we continue to move ahead, there will be a time in which our restrictions will be lessened and we will resume the new life that we will be presented, a new normal.
Father James has resumed hearing confessions. Here are the details:
- Confessions will be on Saturdays from 3 PM until 5 PM or until finished.
- Father will hear confessions in the entry of Sacred Heart Church.
- People will need to line up 6 feet apart, outside along the covered walk on the school side of Sacred Heart Church. One of the doors, facing 7th street, will be propped open, so no one will have to touch the door.
- Father will be over by the doors on the bell tower side of the church entry.
- We will have a screen. The Archdiocese has recommended that we do not have face-to-face confessions at this time.
- Penitents will walk up to the screen. There will be no kneeler and no chair. People can simply stand behind the screen, confess and then receive counsel, penance and absolution.
- Penitents can EXIT through the same propped open door they entered. We want to keep to a minimum items that people have to touch.
- Father will put the CD player in the sacristy window and play music so the people waiting will not be able to hear the confessions inside.
