(English/Spanish available) “With the new status of the COVID pandemic, resulting in far fewer infections, hospitalizations, and deaths, and with so many having chosen to receive a vaccination against COVID, the time has come for the most significant change in a long time regarding our divine worship.”

As Oregon continues to reopen, I encourage all the faithful to return to Holy Mass and begin to engage more fully in the life of the Church. The dispensation from the obligation to attend Holy Mass on Sundays and Solemnities remains in effect for all those who are vulnerable, sick, or have grave fears about contracting the virus.
