Am I Obliged to Attend Mass?
Our bishop has now reminded us (Pastoral Letter of May 20, 2021) of the importance of fulfilling our grave obligation to attend Holy Mass on Sundays and Days of Obligation, unless any of the three criteria apply on an individual basis:

· Those who feel sick, or have symptoms of COVID or any contagious virus;
· Those who care for a vulnerable persons, and are concerned about infecting their care recipients; 
· Those who do not feel safe attending Mass because of ongoing fears of contracting the virus.
