The current Restrictions for Impacted Areas (No. 19) Direction

It is our recommendation that churches in impacted areas err on the side of caution by following these guidelines in relation to face masks:

Face masks should be worn when entering or exiting the church building/space or moving around in a church service or gathering, including when leaving a seat to receive communion.
Face masks do not need to be worn while seated at church gatherings.
Face masks do not need to be worn while standing at church gatherings, including when singing while standing.
Face masks do not need to be worn while seated in workplaces (such as the parish office and at parish council meetings). A person leaving their desk/seat to move to another area in the workplace must wear a face mask.
Face masks are only required in outdoor spaces at church gatherings if a person cannot maintain physical distance from people who are not members of their household.

Some exemptions to face mask requirements continue to apply, including:

Children under 12 are not required to wear a face mask.
Workers and educators may temporarily remove their face mask in situations where clear enunciation or visibility of the mouth is essential (this includes those preaching, leading services and leading singing).
People may temporarily remove their face mask to eat and drink at church gatherings.
Face mask wearing requirements do not apply to a person being married while in the process of being married.
