Dear brothers and sisters, after a certain relaxation in recent days, it seems that the measures will be tightened again. We will wait for the government's decision.

Dear brothers and sisters, this week on Thursday, an update to the anti-epidemic system was published, and we are now in level 3. This means that churches can be filled to 30% of their seating capacity.

Brothers and sisters, since we have not been able to hold Bible studies and catechism classes for a while, we will attempt to conduct them online on Wednesday at 8:30 PM.

Dear brothers and sisters, this week a new Counter-Epidemic System (PES) came into effect, allowing participation in services for 15 people (the celebrating priest and those who organize the service). This enabled us to proceed with public worship.

Dear brothers and sisters, today a new anti-epidemic system for classifying the level of risk PES has come into effect. We are at risk level 5, which means that worship services are possible with a maximum of 15 participants.

Dear brothers and sisters, last week was marked by prayers for the deceased, but according to the decree I attached in the updates from last week, we can continue these prayers throughout the month of November. Since there was great interest in the distribution of the Eucharist last week, I have decided to continue with this practice and be available daily at St. Martin's Church for the sacrament of reconciliation and the Eucharist.

Dear brothers and sisters, next Friday, November 13, is the commemoration of St. Agnes of Bohemia.

Dear brothers and sisters, next week we enter a period in which we usually pray for the deceased. At the same time, we find ourselves in a period of quarantine and government measures to reduce the spread of covid-19 in society. Although there is the possibility of celebrating Mass at the cemetery, because social distancing can be observed here, and I do not hide the fact that General Vicar Zdenek Wasserbauer encourages us to such Masses, I still do not feel it is right to celebrate them.
