The Wisconsin Bishops' Conference has restored the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays, beginning this weekend, September 5/6.
Now comes the big test: how many parishioners actually return to Mass regularly?
There's another question not answered by the news-story linked above: will parishes still be forced to "socially distance" the faithful who attend Mass? The current "RED DEATH-avoidance" practice eliminates about half the seating space in the nave--which in some parishes will create a problem of space-shortage, assuming everyone returns.
Hmmmm.
The dispensation has now been extended through 09/13
