Return the Sacraments Rally in Boston May 17th at 3PM

May 12, 2020

Open letter and invitation to Catholics of Greater Boston:

Many of you are frustrated and angry about the loss of mass and the sacraments due to the Corona Virus Pandemic. Churches are closed while many stores, Home Depot, Lowe’s, Job Lot, Target, liquor and marijuana stores, and worst of all, abortion facilities, are open. There is talk of the “new normal” (read that to mean changes to prevent things from going back to normal in the near and distant future!). Word from the Archdiocese has very much parroted the secular recommendations. We have heard nothing of our “Constitutional right to freedom of religion.”

As our Shepherd, it is Cardinal O’Malley’s job to lead the fight for our rights to our sacraments. To date, he has not done so. It is time for the laity to make our wishes known to him. There will be a peaceful and prayerful rally of Catholics to let him know our wishes.

Please join us on Sunday, May 17th at 3:00 pm at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross, 1400 Washington Street, Boston, MA. Numbers are important. Please extend this invitation to everyone you can. The time for silent compliance is over.

For more information, contact Anne Kane at 781.223.1801 or annie.kane4@verizon.net .

Baker said his decision to shutter houses of worship during the state of emergency “was the right thing to do, but I hated doing it .” They have been allowed to restart religious services this week as long as they practice social distancing as part of the first phase of the state’s reopening plan. Governor Baker didn't "hate" authorizing cross-contaminated cups of coffee getting passed out at any Dunkies enough to stop it. I'm glad he felt that way, but even as worshipers brought their concerns forward, he had to be legally threatened before he conceded his orders violated the First Amendment. Something screwball going on. We have a contagious virus which approximately 7/10 people with healthy immune symptoms overcome without havi...
