I think this is a recycled column. It’s not the first time I’ve noticed a detail that identified as not-current, such as references to events in the news that are no longer “new.”
It depends on the Diocese. Some Bishops have any Holy Day that falls on Friday-Monday, is celebrated on Sunday. Don’t like it but..
The Assumption. My parish and school as I grew up was Our Lady of the Assumption. As a school boy for 8 years the only Holy Day of Obligation we were not forced by the Dominican Sisters to attend Mass as it falls between grades. Though we were cautioned about it in June as we finished one grade and warned by our new teachers in September to go to confession if we missed it.
St. Mary, Mother of Our Lord:
“We sing with joy of Mary,
Whose heart with awe was stirred
When, youthful and astonished,
She heard the angel’s word.
Yet she her voice upraises
To magnify God’s name,
As once for our salvation
Your mother she became” (Lutheran Service Book)
