Provided you:
- are a member of the choir
- present your vaccine papers
- stay 2 metres away from other choristers
- stay 4 metres away from anyone not allowed to sing
- wear a mask
- don’t have so many masked, vaccine papered, gasping for breath choristers they overcrowd the place
As you can tell, the Diocese of Toronto has fully embraced (or is “taken on board” the in expression, I forget) “If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.”
From here:
Bearing all of this in mind, and after due consideration and consultation, we are commencing a gradual expansion of our practices around singing. Effective immediately, we are permitting choral singing by fully vaccinated choristers, masked and distanced 2–3 metres from each other, and a minimum of four metres from the congregation.
COVID-19 continues to be a developing story with rising and falling active cases daily. Health measures vary from regions to regions. Individuals still make up their own mind to take the appropriate actions. Perhaps, because of the huge numbers of infected people in the U.S., Dr. Francis Collins, the retiring Director of NIH, continues to worship online as of October 9 (CNN). The most recent decision regarding choristers made by the Diocese of Toronto will not be welcomed by all members.
Where is Satan having his party?
