In the Church document Sacrosantum Concilium Art.29 also the ministers of the mass (altar boys), lectors, commentators and choir members actually carry out liturgical services. They should therefore discharge their duties devoutly, sincerely and thoroughly, as worthy of such a high ministry, and after what is properly required of them by the people of God. So it is necessary for them to be deeply infused with the spirit of the liturgy, each of which is only his ability, and be nurtured to carry out their roles appropriately and neatly.
Coronavirus Disease 2019 is a new type of disease that has never been previously identified in humans. The virus that causes Covid-19 is called Sars-CoV-2. Corona virus is zoonotic (transmitted between animals and humans). Meanwhile, the animal that is the source of Covid-19 transmission is still unknown. Based on scientific evidence, Covid-19 can be transmitted from human to human through coughing/sneezing droplets (droplets). The people most at risk of contracting this disease are people who are in close contact with Covid-19 patients, including those who treat Covid-19 patients (Kemenkes RI, 2020). Common signs and symptoms of Covid-19 infection include symptoms of acute respiratory distress such as fever, cough, and shortness of breath. The average incubation period is 5 - 6 days with an incubation period of fever, cough, and shortness of breath. In severe cases, Covid-19 can cause pneumonia, The church greets people in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Covid-19 pandemic is still rampant. Moments of social isolation have changed many aspects of church life. To deal with the Covid-19 pandemic, the Church needs to learn from history, one of which is the history of God's people after the exile from Babylon. In addition, there are several challenges that the Church needs to face as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, namely in the aspects of celebrating the Eucharist, ministry, and theology. In order to support the handling of Covid-19, the Church put forward several appeals to support the work of the government.
The reality that happened is based on the author's interview with the head of the Stasi, the administrators and the people of the St. Petrus Sumberejo Blitar Station that with the Covid-19 pandemic like this, people were afraid, indecisive, came to church, and before the Covid-19 pandemic, at the St. clear division of liturgical duties, and all liturgical officers assigned to carry out their duties. With the passage of time due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the schedule that had been arranged did not go as expected. Because there are people or liturgical officers, who have just returned from out of town, so they have to carry out a quarantine process for 2 weeks, therefore the liturgical officers who have been arranged are hampered and the liturgical staff's schedule is not arranged properly.
