MASS OBLIGATION LIFFTED
On Monday, October 5, Bishop Ricken reinstated the dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass in the diocese until further notice. Even with the reinstatement, we will continue to celebrate Mass publicly every weekend and weekday as scheduled for those who are able to attend and willing to strictly follow the proper health protocols. During this time of increased infection, our parishes will be even more vigilant in observing the health protocols shared in the diocesan guidelines to prevent the spread of disease and allow as many people as is safe to come to Mass without fear of infection. The wearing of masks is mandatory at Masses celebrated throughout our diocese. Thank you for your support and compliance as we as a community of faith come together to worship in safety.
WORLD'S POOR AND HOME MISSION SPECIAL COLLECTION
Each of us is called to follow the Gospel message to love one another. Next weekend, November 7 and 8, we have an opportunity to show our love to poor people around the world by supporting agencies that work against poverty and promote human dignity in the name of the Catholic Church. This special consolidated collection will be for causes that were missed earlier this year. ST. JOSEPH
