Here is what is changing at St. Anselm Parish going forward.

As I am sure you have been, I, too, have been following the progress and the reports about the COVID-19 Virus. Governor Mike DeWine issued an order preventing gatherings of over 100 people to help curtail the spread of the virus. Mass and other religious services, such as funerals and weddings, were excluded from this order and are still permitted. As such, the Diocese has encouraged all parishes to maintain as regular a Mass schedule as possible for those who wish to gather for prayer. However, the obligation to attend Sunday Mass has been dispensed for the weekends of March 14/15, March 21/22, and March 28/29. It is possible that this may be extended as conditions warrant.
