For Weekday Masses:
If Anne Arundel County closes schools, we will cancel that weekday's masses - 7:00 am (St. Bernadette) and 8:30 am (Christ the King Chapel). It is our belief is that if it is unsafe for our children to go to school, it is equally unsafe for adults to get to church. Many have a passion for honoring God and beginning their day worshiping at weekday Mass. At the same time, God is not honored by broken arms or legs or car accidents.
If Anne Arundel County Schools have a delayed opening but are not canceled, daily masses will be canceled. The CTK parish center will open at 10:00 am.
For Weekend Masses:
If we are threatened with a snow blizzard or ice storm on the weekend AND the Archbishop goes on TV to ask us to use discretion about attending Mass on that particular weekend, he is concerned that some folks who should not attempt to worship and are vulnerable to hurting themselves might imprudently go out in deep snow or unsafe ice and actually hurt themselves. Only when these two factors come together will we cancel weekend Masses.
