Mar 11: The Cardinal has given a dispensation to eat meat on Friday due to the Solemnity of St. Joseph.
Subject: St. Joseph's Day
Date: Thursday, March 11, 2010
Friends, as we look forward to the Congress Mass and [dinner events} on Friday, March 19, the Feast of St. Joseph, may I remind you of Canon 1251: "Abstinence from eating meat or some other food according to the prescripts of the conference of bishops is to be observed every Friday of the year unless a Friday occurs on a day listed as a solemnity." The Feast of St. Joseph is a Solemnity, therefore, we can have meat on Friday, March 19.

SPEAKER BOOK SIGNINGS
Congress strives to offer experiences that stimulate new ideas and renew excitement about ministry, reinvigorate faith and help restore a spirit of hope. This happens through ritual, prayer, music, dance and Word – not only from workshops, but through the various daily liturgies we offer. We invite you to experience a liturgy from among the many cultures represented.
A dismissal Rite for Catechumens will be celebrated at the morning and afternoon Liturgies at Congress, March 21, 2010. The morning Liturgy will be celebrated at 8:00 a.m. and in the afternoon Liturgy at 3:15 p.m.
See the offer by Sr. Edith Prendergast to have Catechumens or Candidates participate in the Rite.
