The restrictions put into place to prevent the spread of Covid-19 and protect people's health come to an end in the Diocese of Helsinki at the end of April.
Parishes return to their normal practices in their activities. However, we still encourage people to maintain good hand and cough hygiene and to avoid coming to church if you have symptoms of Covid-19 or some other easily transmissible disease. From now on, the obligation to attend Mass in person on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation is in force again. However, those who are part of various risk goups may still need to avoid those Masses that generally have the greatest number of people. For more information, please contact your parish.
The coronavirus situation in metropolitan Helsinki has worsened, which means the coronavirus instructions for St Henry's Cathedral Parish must also change. From November 23rd, a maximum of 20 people can attend any one Mass and you must register ahead. All hygien instructions must be followed. Using face coverings is mandatory.
The Catholic Diocese of Helsinki follows the general instructions of the Finnish government to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. In the Cathedral Parish we have the following regulations in place:
General Instructions concerning Mass Attendance in the Diocese of Helsinki, as of June 1st
How may I participate at Mass?
How do I implement proper safety measures in church?
How do I receive the Eucharist?
How do I receive other Sacraments?
Father Jean Claude Cabeza, parish priest of St Henry's Cathedral Parish, has made an announcement regarding the extraordinary situation caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
