Our Lady of the Snows Protocols (Updated)

• Our seating capacity is remains at 82 non household individuals.  The state of Nevada limits are up to 50% of the fire code capacity, but still with 6’ distancing.  It is this 6’ distance that determines the 82.  We can take up to 110 persons when households seat together.
• All persons coming to mass or gatherings must wear their facemasks and sign in; for weekend masses sign in online
• Entry is through the East Main Doors
• Ushers will assist people in signing in and also with seating to ensure we maintain our distances
• No collection is taken, but baskets are placed at the entrances for donations
• At the end of mass, all doors are open and we ask that people not congregate within the church or at the door
• After each mass the pews are sprayed down with disinfectant.
• Wednesday masses are designated as the previous “Sunday” mass, unless liturgically that Wednesday mass must be celebrated as such
• Generally, all weekday masses are able to be viewed via social media; the Sunday 10 a.m. mass is live-streamed
• Funerals, Weddings, Baptisms are able to be celebrated in accord with the above restrictions
