Easter Sunday is one of the most important dates in Christianity and because of that, it’s a day when church pews are usually packed, but due to the coronavirus, many church buildings were empty last year.
Thanks to declining case counts as well as the vaccine, some congregations are preparing to meet in person this year, while following CDC safety precautions.
At St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church in North Logan, church members have been practicing these safety measures like social distancing and mask-wearing since the beginning of the pandemic.
Leaders expect that this Easter Sunday attendance will be at maxim capacity and they are prepared to make accommodations as needed. They have a schedule for Holy Week, with a variety of time frames for mass services to allow for social distancing.
