Churches have closed during other pandemics. Maybe use those incidents as examples so they know it is ok to close down while also not feeling like they're showing a lack of faith. When I checked the webpage of the Catholic diocese I'm located it, it mentioned that Catholics have been released from their obligation to attend mass and this has happened before. Hopefully other churches will have the same attitude.
- exegete 7y agoI think most have the right attitude. I’m in the NYC area and most had closed even before any official request or order. Although there are always some members who don’t get it. I was actually able to get our church to use Zoom for the time being until we can meet in person again.
