Bishop Coerver reinstates Sunday Mass Obligation starting This weekend
Bishop Coerver is reinstating the obligation to participate in person at the celebration of the Eucharist, to attend Mass, on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation beginning the first weekend of April — April 2 and 3.
Of course, if you are not feeling well – or have a medical condition that makes it dangerous for you to return to church and be physically present — by Church law, the obligation does not bind you.
May our gathering for Easter this year be a particular cause for joy in our parishes and our homes. Please invite family members, friends, neighbors, anyone whom you believe might benefit from sharing with us as we gather during Passiontide – the 14 days before Easter.
