Peace and isolated greetings from Bishop’s office! I hope this finds you well.
Bishop Bittman remains well informed on the COVID-19 situation in our province and follows the recommendations of Provincial Heath Minister Adrian Dix and Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry. Under their direction, Bishop Bittman issues the following updates:
- Parishes, parish offices and the Catholic Pastoral Centre are to remain closed to the public until May 15. We will update again as that date draws nearer.
- The Family Fun Day scheduled for May 30, 2020, in Kelowna has been postponed until it is safe to have large gatherings once again.
We are very grateful for your efforts to work through these challenging times and make the adaptations necessary to fulfill your role as pastor, secretary, teacher, administrator, diocesan staff, parishioner, etc. Please know you are in our prayers. This won’t last forever and we look forward to reconnecting in person as a faith community when it is safe to do so.
Stay Safe, Stay Healthy and Stay Home!
