Inclement Weather Policy

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish follows Anne Arundel County Public School policy at www.aacps.org in cases of inclement weather.

If school buildings are closed, the Parish Offices are closed, the 9:00a.m. Mass is canceled and all evening meetings and activities are canceled. The Crofton Food Pantry will be closed also.

If the schools are delayed, the 9:00 a.m. Mass and all morning meetings and activities will be cancelled and Parish Offices will be delayed opening the same amount of time. For example, if schools are delayed 2 hours, the Parish Offices will open at 11:00 a.m. instead of 9:00 a.m. The Crofton Food Pantry will open at 10:00 a.m. when schools are delayed.

If schools are closed during the day and school evening activities are cancelled, then the Parish Offices will close at the same time and all evening meetings and activities at the parish are canceled.

Masses will go on as scheduled, unless the Archbishop of Baltimore grants a general dispensation from the Sunday obligation. Visit the parish website, Facebook page, or call the Parish Office to confirm whether Masses are being celebrated. Call the Parish Office before visiting to see if it is open.

There is no obligation to attend Mass when weather causes hazardous road conditions. Please exercise prudent judgment and do not take unnecessary risks by driving on snowy or icy roadways.
