We are told not to go out except to buy groceries in crowded stores, to go through drive through establishments, shop in liquor stores and fire arm stores.
Thus this is what St. Anne in Richmond Hill, GA is doing Palm Sunday:
We are still planning our drive through Palm Sunday Social Distancing procession with Holy Water Blessing and Eucharistic Benediction at 12 noon. If any one in authority asks you where you are going, simply tell them you are going to McDonald’s drive through. 🚗 Just don’t add “Father” to my last name. 😆 And yes this is essential and safer than going to Publix, any fast food drive through, fire arm stores and liquor stores! Although you might get high on the Holy Spirit! 🔥
Is this more dangerous than grocery shopping?
The Protestant mayor of Richmond Hill is in this car for last Sunday’s McDonald’s drive through:
And one of my parishioners did this for Palm Sunday and Holy Week:

“...fire arm stores and liquor stores...”
WHAT?? Those fill “essential” needs? Pennsylvania closed all liquor stores two weeks ago.
God bless us all...
Anonymous K,
We need liquor stores open to deal with your inane comments
Highly irresponsible behaviour!
Bee here:
Father McD, you are a gem!!!! How I wish I lived nearby, because I would love to go through your "drive through" to get blessed by the Blessed Sacrament and holy water, and tomorrow receive palms. To say "I'm going to McDonald's" is brilliant!
Alas, here in progressive land of Chicago, the priests of St. John Cantius dare not do the same thing lest they get in trouble with the powers that be, although the facility has a driveway that goes all the way around the church in a loop, and this would be totally doable. How I wish we could get blessed palms, but we won't.
Father, being stuck at home and cut off from church services except by live stream is so painful. Your parishioners are very blessed by the creative ways you are continuing to bring them Our Lord.
May God bless you a thousandfold.
God bless.

Georgia Department of Public Health Covid 19 Daily Status Report:
Confirmed Cases - 6160
Hospitalized - 1239
Deaths - 201
ALL of these number have continued to increase since GDPH started reporting daily.
Continuing to invite people to skirt the Governor's orders is irresponsible. Making it a game is reprehensible.
If you are a Catholic or a priest you are such a fool. Go and buy your groceries in a packed store, get your liquor and buy your fire arms. And all in person and in close proximity to others, but stay in your car and get a drive through blessing, that's a health risk. You are a fool!
GDPH,
Is this another Kavanaugh nom de plume?
Father McDonald is a prince and you are a knave

Explain.

“Explain highly irresponsible behaviour”?
I did but Fr McD didn’t publish my response. I guess he didn’t like the scientific and epidemiological FACTS!
UK-Fake Priest aka Kavanaugh,
Science? LOL - you will be mandating that your flock hold hands and slurp from the Chalice once this crisis is over. Do the Catholic Church and your parish a favor, resign from the Catholic priesthood and go work for your spiritual home - the Abortion Party.
Fr. McDonald often chooses not to post comments that contradict his erroneous statements and claims.
