Congregations, duration limited for Christmas Mass in Jakarta Church en.antaranews.com

VOI News - The duration and congregations that attend the Christmas Mass in person at the Jakarta Cathedral are limited to lower the risk of transmission of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

Jakarta Cathedral Church spokesperson Susyana Suwadie stated at the Jakarta Cathedral on Friday that the congregation is limited to 20 percent of the capacity, which is 309 people, and the time of worship is at most for 60 minutes. A total of 200 congregants attend the Christmas Mass at the church and 109 congregants at Plaza Maria.

Suwadie explained that the face-to-face Christmas Masses can only be attended by family members of the Jakarta Cathedral Church Parish, aged between 18 years and 59 years and who had earlier registered online. Only congregants, who have registered and possess a QR Code, may attend the face-to-face Christmas Mass at the Jakarta Cathedral Church.

Congregations arriving at the venue are also subject to temperature checks before entering the church and are urged to keep their distance during the Mass. The Jakarta Cathedral Church holds three Christmas Masses, one mass broadcast online and two face-to-face mass.//antaranews/edt-trs.yb
