• No capacity limit or distancing requirements indoors or outdoors
• The mayor of Minneapolis has reinstated the city mask mandate as of January 6, 2022 at 5pm, which means all those in the building of St. Lawrence Newman Center will have to wear a mask.
• PLEASE wash or sanitize your hands when entering the building, or whenever you use the restroom, cough, sneeze, or touch your face or surfaces 
• Groups will sanitize the space they use after each event

The bishops and diocesan administrators of Minnesota together announced that the dispensation of the Sunday obligation will be lifted the weekend of July 3-4, 2021. Archbishop Hebda has written a letter thanking the faithful and all parish and school staff for their sacrifices during the pandemic. You can find his letter here and the letter from the Bishops of Minnesota here.
