Berlin Archdiocese Bans Unvaccinated from Most Church Services During Advent and Christmas

The archdiocese also issued several “protective health measures,” including mandatory mask wearing at all times and a prohibition to receive Holy Communion on the tongue.

BERLIN (LifeSiteNews) — The Archdiocese of Berlin will effectively segregate vaccinated and unvaccinated faithful during Advent and Christmastime.

The archdiocese issued the harsh restrictions in a communiqué published Friday on its official website, announcing that from November 27 onward, the so-called 2G rule will apply to most Masses and church services of the diocese throughout Advent and Christmastime.

The 2G rule allows only people who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 or who have recently recovered from the disease to attend all church services. The faithful will have to show proof of vaccination or immunization upon entry.

According to the communiqué, the decision was taken in view of the “sharply increasing numbers of COVID cases” in Germany.

People under 18 are exempt from the rule, as are those who are able to provide proof of a medical exemption from the COVID vaccine, which is difficult to obtain in Germany. In any case, these people will have to show a negative COVID test upon entering.

Masses according to the less restrictive so-called 3G rule will only be celebrated once a day on Sundays and feast days in every parish.

The 3G rule allows unvaccinated people who have not contracted COVID-19 to attend Mass at specific times, provided they show a negative COVID test upon entry, which may be no older than 24 hours for antigen tests and 48 hours for PCR tests.

In addition, the archdiocese issued a number of “protective health measures” to be applied in every church.

Starve the Church. Penitence for turning it’s back on the people.

I have gathered that people aren’t beating the doors down to get in the churches.

Jesus even touched and healed lepers, the deaf and mute, the crippled.

These unvaccinated people would also be welcomed by Jesus.

It is shameful and sinful to exclude sick or well people from the Catholic Church.

Jesus doesn’t go to a Catholic Church anyway.

Should start making these “Catholic Caucus” if they’re going to draw trolls like posters 10 and 17. Stick to the topic.
