As per the ministerial order 2022/02 of January 8, 2022, the following measures are now applicable to our churches in Yukon: Maximum 50 per cent of venue capacity, or maximum 25 people, which every is less; Mask use indoors; Proof of vaccination is required for 12 years + 4 months and over.

SUNDAY OBLIGATION & RECORDED MASSES
Bishop Vila has removed the obligation for Sunday Mass for parishioners in Yukon and BC Northern Region who are not able to attend Mass under these conditions.
You are encouraged to watch an online Mass from home. This could be a recorded Mass from your parish or through the recorded Mass from Sacred Heart Cathedral on the diocesan youtube channel. Although this does not meet the Sunday holyday of Obligation (Canon 1246.1), it will help sustain you spiritually given the current conditions. This dispensation is in effect for all churches in the Diocese as of January 7th, 2022 until further notice.
We encourage the Faithful to reach out to their pastor or lay minister for any pastoral needs including reception of Holy Communion and other sacraments.
