A Message to the Community of Faith, from the DHS Assistant Director of Infrastructure Security
"The ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has temporarily altered our daily activities. People are rightly practicing social distancing to limit community spread, in line with the President’s Coronavirus Guidelines for America. Many houses of worship have also suspended or significantly reduced services to avoid mass gatherings.

The American people are resilient, and we will achieve this goal soon."
