Wichita churches change mass to prevent flu spread

Even above the music, you can hear that many people aren't feeling well at some Wichita churches. Father Matthew McGinness at St. Thomas Aquinas says, "We are very concerned for the spread of germs and people are always hitting me up and saying Father, I don't want to shake hands. I've been sick or I don't want to get sick again, that sort of thing." That's why some Wichita priests are taking action by making changes to mass. Church of the Magdalen parishioner Diana Ensign says, "I thank them. I think it's great."
