Weather Closure Policy

A Note about Weekend Masses and Inclement Weather:

Because of the hazards of travel in the Hereford Zone during the winter months, we are concerned for those ministers who might try to get to Mass to fulfill their ministries. Therefore, the following bad weather policies are placed into effect:

Saturday – 5:00pm Mass – If there is a need to cancel Mass, the decision will be made no later than 3:00pm.  A cancellation of Mass on Saturday also means that any church functions scheduled for that evening are also cancelled. The decision will be emailed to staff, posted on the website, and on our outgoing parish telephone message.

Sunday – If there is a need to cancel any or all Masses, the decision will be made no later than 6:00am. The announcement will indicate which Masses are being affected. The decision will be emailed to staff, posted on the website, and on our outgoing parish telephone message.
