Mass can be celebrated again with no limits on numbers

Following the Prime Minister’s announcement of Monday 8 June that New Zealand has moved to Covid-19 Alert Level 1, Mass –  and other Church events such as weddings, funerals and baptisms –  can again take place with no restrictions on the number of people attending.

On 26 May, when a limited celebration of Mass became possible, your bishops issued a Pastoral Letter and a letter to parish leadership. The Pastoral Letter can be read here in PDF format.

Here you can read the letter to parish leaders on resuming public Mass.
