In his Corona Virus Advisory of March 13, 2020, Archbishop Gregory Hartmayer called for prayer and waived the obligation for members of the Diocese of Savannah to attend Mass during the current national emergency, writing:
"Please follow the directions and advice of your local public health officials, any announcements from the Pastoral Center in Savannah and from your pastor regarding the changes in the schedule of Masses or the closing of schools. If you are ill, do not come to Church. The obligation to attend Mass is waived during this national emergency."
