Weather Guidelines

Mass takes place as scheduled regardless of the weather. Please use your best judgement in severe weather conditions when main roads and neighborhoods may not be safe to drive. Remember that the 10:30am and 2:30pm (Spanish) Sunday Masses are livestreamed here on our site and on our Facebook page.

Park Avenue is an emergency snow route. Please use our lots and avoid parking there during a snow emergency. Details about snow emergency policy are available on the Falls Church website. 

During inclement weather, our rectory office follows the Falls Church City Government.  If the city government is closed or operating on a delay, our rectory will follow the same schedule. The city communicates during emergencies via several outlets, including local news media and on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

Adult ministries and formation programs will generally follow the city government, but may decide to cancel sessions or meetings based on a consensus of members or leadership. In that case, every effort will be made to notify members and participants, including ministry email lists and social media.

The school and religious education program (PREP) generally follow Falls Church City Schools. You can find the school district’s operating status at https://www.fccps.org/ or their Facebook page.
