UPCOMING EVENTS:
- Parish Office is CLOSED: Wednesday, November 27th - Friday, November 29th, in observance of the Thanksgiving Holiday. Office will reopen for normal business hours on Monday, December 2nd.
- Thanksgiving Day Mass: Thursday, November 28th @ 8:15am
- Monthly 50+ Club Meeting: December 7th @ 9am (Mass) and fellowship to follow.
- Holy Day of Obligation ~ Solemnity of The Immaculate Conception: Monday, December 9th @ 7pm (Mass)
- Monday, December 9 will be a Holy Day of Obligation: This year, December 8 will be the Second Sunday of Advent, so the solemnity of the Immaculate Conception is transferred to Monday, December 9. Previously, when the date was transferred, the obligation was abrogated. That will no longer be true. From the USCCB: Earlier this year, Bishop Thomas J. Paprocki, Chairman of the USCCB’s Committee on Canonical Affairs and Church Governance, wrote to the Holy See seeking clarification about the obligation to attend Mass when a holy day of obligation falls on a Sunday in Advent, Lent, or Easter and the Solemnity is transferred to Monday. In a memo to the U.S. bishops dated Thursday, October 10, Bishop Paprocki communicated the Dicastery for Legislative Text’s response: “the feast must be observed as a day of obligation on the day to which it is transferred.” In light of this new directive, the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, Monday, December 9, 2024, is to be observed as a holy day of obligation.
