Proper Church Decorum:
It is important that parents instruct their children in proper behavior in God’s House. Also, we ask that the following policies be observed regarding small children:
1) Families with infants should sit toward the back of church.
2) Infants that become noisy during Mass should be taken out of church.
3) Please do not bring toys or food into the church.
