FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Bishop David L. Ricken reinstates obligation to attend Sunday Mass

GREEN BAY, Wis. (July 15,2021) –Bishop David L. Ricken of the Diocese of Green Bay announced this week the reinstatement of the Sunday Mass obligation effectivethe weekend of August 14-15, 2021.

“Since we are experiencing greater health in our communities and our parishes, after much discernment and consultation, I have decided to lift the dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass effective on August 15th, the Solemnity of the Assumption of Our Lady into heaven,” said Bishop Ricken. “Because we truly love God, and strive to be missionary disciples, we would want to spend time with Him, to worship, praise and adore Him. The Sunday Mass is the most complete way we can do this.”

Even with the reinstatement of the obligation to attend Sunday Mass, it is important to note there are occasions when the obligation does not apply:

  • If individual Catholics struggle with serious health concerns or are physically or morally prevented from worshipping at Mass for a seriousreason
  • If individuals are frail due to illness or age or, in their well-formed conscience believe that going into public places --including Sunday worship at Mass --would place their health or the health of their loved ones in serious jeopardy
  • If individuals are sick, or have been in contact with someone who has been sick
  • If there is severe weather

The faithful who are unable to attend Mass should follow the third Commandment “To Keep Holy the Lord’s Day” by spending time in prayer, reading the Scriptures, and taking part in acts of charity from home.

NEW WEBSITE FOR ST. JAMES AND ST. JOSEPH

We are excited to announce that a new website for St. James Church has just launched. This new site has features that the old Circle of Faith website was not capable of – most notably that it is user friendly on mobile devices like tablets or cell phones. It is a shared site with St. Joseph’s Church in Kellnersville. The homepage features photos scrolling across the top, and easy links for livestreaming, bulletins, contacting us, and Mass times. Then, when you enter St. James’ pages, you’ll find new and specific information for all things St. James.

Check out the Photo Albums with pictures from Deacon Dan’s ordination, the Cemetery Mass last fall, and the Bread Party last week. Let us know what you think!

The Our Father

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen

Hail, Mary! Full of grace, The Lord is with thee, Blessed are thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now, and at the hour of our death. Amen

Glory Be

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen
