Can’t the archdiocese negotiate specific Mass practices with the health authorities, and go from there?
Some examples. Aside from wearing masks and adequate distancing, no singing, but musical instruments OK? Single singer? Recorded music? Cut down Mass time 15 minutes with bare essentials of offertory, consecration, Communion? Additional shortened Masses with smaller alternating audiences (e.g., two 15-minute Masses every hour to give time for church to empty and filled with next group)? Just have Communion, but also require TV or virtual Mass attendance? No sharing wine-cup drinking.
Temporarily, tons of workable stuff can be done. Use the brains God has given us!
