  • It looked like the priest was in compliance. The officer did noting to verify this compliance. None of the government officials was able to say one way or another whether the church could be considered an essential service.

  • There is more;

    While holding a Eucharistic adoration service recently with around 10-20 people, all spaced out in different pews inside the church to observe social distancing protocols, police nevertheless disbanded the small group and issued formal citations to everyone present, meaning they could be subject to criminal procedures and fines of over 200 euros, roughly amounting to $225.
    Speaking to Crux, Petrilli noted that churches are allowed to be open, “but they say people can’t go because it’s not a ‘primary need’. This is what they say. But the constitution guarantees freedom of worship in every situation.”
