2021 CSMA COMMITMENT WEEKEND MARCH 6-7
Next weekend, every parish in the diocese will be participating in CSMA. This annual collection supports the ministries and agencies in our diocese whose scope of service could not be duplicated by an individual parish. Our parish participation goal for the appeal is 179 households and our financial target is $11,570 ($288 lower than last year). You will have an opportunity to make your pledge or gift at Mass next weekend. If you do not receive a pledge card in the mail or forget to bring it, please use one of the reply envelopes that will be available as you exit church. If you are unable to attend Mass in person, please return your pledge card to the parish office. No gift is too great or too small. Please be as generous as you are able.

While Fridays in Lent normally are a day of abstinence from meat for Catholics, canon law provides an exception for solemnities that fall on a Friday. The Solemnity of St. Joseph on March 19 will be on a Friday this year; therefore, Catholics are not obligated to maintain the usual Lenten abstinence on Friday, March 19, 2021. Canon 1251 notes, “Abstinence from meat, or from some other food as determined by the Episcopal Conference, is to be observed on all Fridays, unless a solemnity should fall on a Friday. Abstinence and fasting are to be observed on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday."
