Inclement Weather Policy

Immaculate Conception Catholic Church

The following will be put into effect each time there is an occurrence of inclement weather that makes traveling to and from church grounds hazardous: Weekend and weekday Masses will be celebrated as scheduled. They will not be cancelled. All church meetings, classes and events (including, but not limited to: Faith Formation, RCIA, Parish Council, and other scheduled programs and events) will be cancelled and the office will be closed for the duration of inclement weather. (A general rule: if Sampson County schools are closed due to inclement weather, then so are we!) All staff, paid and volunteer, are not required to travel to church grounds. Note** In the event of inclement weather, common sense is to prevail. All meetings will be canceled. The buildings will be closed with the exception of weekend and weekday Masses. The parish will not assume liability for those who disregard this policy. Even though Masses will not be canceled, in the event that travel to Mass is precarious the Faithful of this parish are dispensed from the obligation to attend Mass.

Examples of inclement weather include, but are not limited to:

Hurricanes

Snow and ice storms

Heavy rain

Hail

Etc.


Póliza de Clima Peligrosa

Iglesia Católica de Inmaculada Concepción

Lo siguiente será puesto en efecto cada vez que haya un clima peligroso y que al viajar de la iglesia o a la iglesia sea peligroso. Las misas de fin de semana y entre semana se celebrarón al mismo horario. No se cancelarán. Todas las reuniones, clases (incluyendo clases de catecismo, RICA, Concilio Pastoral y otros programas y eventos) serán cancelados y la oficina será cerrada durante el mal clima. (Una regla general: si las escuelas del condado de Sampson están cerradas por el mal clima, ¡nosotros también!) Todo personal, pagado y voluntario, no se requiere viajar a la iglesia. Nota** En caso de clima peligroso, use su sentido común. Todas las reuniones serán canceladas. El edifício se cerrara con la excepción de las misas de fin de semana y entre semana. La iglesia no será responsable de los que ignoran esta póliza. A pesar de que las misas no están canceladas, y en el evento de viajar a misa es peligroso, los feligreses de esta parroquia son dispensados de asistir a misa.

Ejemplos de clima peligroso:

Huracanes

Tormentas severas

Tormentas de nieve

Tormentas de granizo

Etc.
