TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
This month, parishes around the country will conduct the
“October count,” a measure of aƩendance at Sunday Mass.
The measure has been taken for many centuries, and in some
European dioceses it is possible to measure the level of engagement in worship by the populaƟon over the course of
many centuries. Long ago, it was also the custom to track
“Easter duty” by a staƟsƟcal report. Penitents would receive a
kind of chit at confession, which they would then turn in at
their parish church when they received Holy Communion during Easter Ɵme.
Long ago, of course, Communion was fairly rare in the life of a
Catholic ChrisƟan, perhaps only once a year. The chits would
be tallied by parish priests and reported to the chancery,
which in turn would hold on to the records and include the
staƟsƟcs in a report to the VaƟcan every five years. Nowadays,
the October count has proved especially criƟcal in the life of
our Church as bishops use the figures to measure the vitality
of church life, to sketch parish boundaries, and even to decide
when to close, merge, or form new parishes.
—Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
RegistraƟon is now open for online for Assembly 2016, taking
place on Saturday, November 5th, on the campus of St. Mary’s
University. Keynote speakers will be Eduardo Verastegui, Karyme Lozano and Fr. Thomas Mc Carthy. In the spirit of this year’s
theme “United As Church” we are requiring all par cipants
a ending Assembly 2016 to carpool in groups of no less than
three persons per vehicle. Vehicles with less than three persons
will not be allowed to park on campus. To foster the spirit of
unity, it is Archbishop Gastavo’s desire for all aƩendees to embrace this requirement as a sign of our communion with one
another. This three person requirement applies to all vehicles,
including those requesƟng accessible parking (vehicles must
show handicapped placard) on the St. Mary’s campus for those
with disabiliƟes. Register for Assembly 2016 by visiƟng the Archdiocese website at www. assemblysa.org or call 210-734-1911.
