IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Regarding expanded public health restrictions
- As mandated by the Provincial Government, starting on May 5th, faith services are limited to 15 in-person attendees for at least the next 3 weeks. Due to the new restrictions, we have made the decision to suspend weekend masses. During this time, St. Vital will only have weekday masses Tuesday-Friday @ 9 a.m. for members of St. Vital parish.
- There will be no pre-registrations accepted for the next three weeks and your current registrations are now null and void.
- The 'fairest' resolution will be that all Masses will be first-come first-entry. The doors will open beginning 30 minutes before Mass. Once 15 people are present for Mass the door will be locked.
- No music and/or cantoring at any of the masses take place in order to allow for more parishioners to be able to attend.
- Mask use is mandatory.
- Funerals max attendees is 10.
- Weddings max attendees is 10.

parish will suffer financially. As good stewards, it is important to realize that many of the everyday expenses to run our parish will continue.
We know that these are financially challenging times. You may have lost your job, or your business viability may be threatened. Your savings may have been diminished by market conditions. And we understand that your primary financial responsibility is to your own home and family.
We ask that you also remember your spiritual home, our parish. There are many ways to submit your donations:
