CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas â Local Catholic churches will keep COVID-19 protocols in place even though the governor has rolled many of them back.
That s the word from a spokesperson for the Diocese of Corpus Christi.
The diocese says an official statement will be issued later today.
At Calallen Baptist Church, staff will still be required to wear masks.
People attending services won t be required to wear them but are encouraged to do so. Nothing is really different,â said Calallen Baptist Church youth minister Jacob Garcia. âWeâre still asking people to wear masks and stay distant, I guess It s nice not to get mandated to wear these things but as a church we still wanna protect our people as best as we can.â
It makes me happy because I get to see their smiles, said Abagail Barrera. Author: Mariah Gallegos (KIII TV) Published: 10:31 PM CST December 24, 2020 Updated: 10:31 PM CST December 24, 2020
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas Several organizations continued to reach out to families in need during the holidays. One was the Angel Tree program with Prison Fellowship. The organization finds children who have incarcerated parents to provide for. I love and miss you always, love dad, said Abagail Barrera as she read the personalized card from her dad.
With the help of the Diocese of Corpus Christi, the Barrera kids were able to receive gifts from their dad who is in prison nearly 10 hours away.
