Catholic Churches Close

Roman Catholic Churches across the province are falling silent.

The Diocese of London has ordered all of their churches closed until at least April 30th.

That includes masses, services, funerals, baptisms and weddings.

That expands on Sunday’s decision to let churches remain open for private prayer, communion and weekday mass.

Bishop Ronald Fabbro said he was following the advice of public health officials, adding the closings are needed to protect those at higher risk in the community.
