All Masses are celebrated outdoors at the Parish Hall, 2355 Monroe Avenue...

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s reopening system classifies counties into four tiers based on metrics developed by state officials. Which tier a county falls in determines what can be reopened. As of November 4, Tehama County remains Tier 1, "purple." Places of worship and cultural ceremonies are "Open" outdoors only with modifications.
