Irish bishops have published a pastoral message encouraging a return to Sunday Mass:

“31 August has that sense of finality; while some schools re-open now around the 20th of the month, we can be guaranteed that all will have re-opened by tomorrow. For many there is that sense of new beginnings.

This time of new beginnings offers us all an opportunity to take stock, and in doing so on behalf of the Bishops I invite you to reflect on your keeping of Sunday as the Lord’s Day.
Today I launch a Pastoral message titled Why Sunday Matters.
Sunday Mass offers us the rhythm for the week that follows.
From the very beginning of our Christian faith, Sunday has been central to the life of the Church and remains the heart of Christian practice.

If perhaps your practice has slipped and other things have taken priority; if perhaps you have become accustomed to the webcam; if perhaps since the Covid pandemic you have simply ‘gotten out of the habit’, I encourage you to return, know that you are missed and know that you will be welcome.”

Bishop Denis Nulty
