Bishop David Zubik has issued the following modifications to the Diocese of Pittsburgh’s coronavirus response policies:

• While livestream celebrations of Masses from each of those affected parish groupings will cease effective immediately and until further notice, livestream Masses and worship services from the diocese and other parishes will continue.
• All opportunities for the Sacrament of Reconciliation in churches or church parking lots are immediately suspended at all parishes in the Diocese of Pittsburgh.
• All church buildings in the Diocese of Pittsburgh are to be locked until further notice, due to the fact that we are told that the virus can live on surfaces for an extended period of time.
• All Funeral Masses or services in the Diocese of Pittsburgh, inclusive of those at funeral homes, are immediately cancelled until further notice. Direct burials of the deceased should be celebrated with memorial Masses to occur at a later time.
• All Baptism ceremonies in the Diocese of Pittsburgh are suspended immediately and until further notice.  In cases of emergency (in danger of death), people should contact their priest for guidance.
• All Wedding ceremonies in the Diocese of Pittsburgh are suspended immediately and until further notice. Parishes will be working directly with all couples who have scheduled weddings.
• The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick may occur only in the case of immediate danger of death.
