Etiquette
CHURCH ETIQUETTE
Food, drinks, etc....... The celebration of the Eucharist calls us to fast (abstain from all food & drinks, including chewing gum) for an hour before receiving communion. Please do not bring or give snacks to children during mass.
Sit quietly while in church. Once you enter the sanctuary – it is not the time or place to visit with those around you. Remember that your conversation might be disturbing someone who is in prayer, which is much more important. Sssshhhhhhh!
Church Missalettes & Hymnals ~ are placed in the pews for use by the parishioners.
They are to be treated with care and respect. They should not be written in or given to children to play with. They are the prop-erty of the church and should not be taken home.
Do Not Leave Early.
We should stay to the end of the recessional hymn
