It is truly providential that St. Anne's reopens without capacity limits at the beginning of the Lenten Season. This penitential season becomes even more meaningful as it ushers in the return of many of our parishioners who have long been disconnected from the Holy Eucharist in particular and from parish life in general. Welcome brothers and sisters!

The Eucharist remains the source and summit of our life in Christ. For Christians, participation in the
Sunday Eucharist is the central experience of the week, and that is the foundation for the obligation of
every Catholic to be personally present at Mass every Sunday. Of course, if there is a legitimate reason
(such as being sick) this obligation does not apply. Similarly, when pandemic restrictions for the
common good and love of neighbour have prevented attendance, then the obligation does not apply,
and it is understandable as well that some may feel hesitant at first about returning to personal
participation. But as the restrictions are lifted, now is the time to encourage Catholics to return to
physical presence at Sunday Mass, if not impeded for a legitimate reason, in keeping with our basic
Sunday obligation as Catholics.
