Update on the Dispensation from the Bishop
What is a “dispensation”?
It is “the relaxation of a merely ecclesiastical (Church) law in a particular case.”
Who does the Bishop foresee possibly making use of the dispensation from physically attending Sunday Mass?
- those who are over the age of 65;
- those who have an underlying health condition;
- those who are truly fearful that they might contract the virus; in this case, “truly fearful” is defined as those who have not gone out to a restaurant or visited people with whom they do not live since March, 2020.
- those who are sick, including those who have tested positive for the coronavirus and those who were exposed for fifteen consecutive minutes or more to one who tested positive for Covid-19.
What is expected of a Catholic who makes use of the dispensation for a legitimate reason?
Since the Bishop has no authority to dispense from a Divine Law, in this case, the commandment requiring us to keep the Lord’s Day holy, one may consider the Divine Law fulfilled if, from 4 p.m. the Saturday before or on Sunday itself he/she:- watches a Sunday Mass on television or via live-stream or
- spends at least thirty minutes in prayer, by saying the Rosary, reading the Scriptures or participating in another pious activity.
Is there anything else I should know?
- Yes, the faithful are expected to adhere to the expectations laid out in canon 222 §1, that is, “to assist with the needs of the Church.” Financial support of one’s parish is essential whether one physically attends Mass or not
(Comunidado el 1 de septiembre de 2020)
¿Qué es una "dispensa"?
Es "la relajación de una ley meramente eclesiástica (de la Iglesia) en un caso particular".
¿Quién prevé el obispo que pueda hacer uso de la dispensa de asistir físicamente a la misa dominical?- los que tienen más de 65 años;
- aquellos que tienen una condición de salud preexistente;
- aquellos que realmente temen contraer el virus; en este caso, “verdaderamente temen” se define como aquellos que no han salido a un restaurante o visitado a personas con las que no conviven desde marzo de 2020.
- los que están enfermos, incluidos los que dieron positivo por el coronavirus y los que estuvieron expuestos durante quince minutos consecutivos o más a uno que dio positivo por Covid-19.
¿Qué se espera de un católico que hace uso de la dispensa por una razón legítima?
Dado que el Obispo no tiene autoridad para dispensar de una Ley Divina, en este caso, el mandamiento que nos obliga a santificar el Día del Señor, se puede considerar cumplida la Ley Divina si, a partir de las 4 p.m. el sábado anterior o el domingo mismo él / ella:- mira una misa dominical por televisión o por transmisión en vivo; o
- pasa al menos treinta minutos en oración, rezando el Rosario, leyendo las Escrituras o participando en otra actividad piadosa.
¿Hay algo más que deba saber?
Sí, se espera que los fieles se adhieran a las expectativas establecidas en el canon 222 §1, es decir, "para ayudar con las necesidades de la Iglesia". El apoyo financiero de la parroquia de uno es esencial ya sea que uno asista físicamente a misa o no.
