Obedience Is a Virtue: Follow Your Bishop’s Rules!

March 18, 2020December 1, 2021 Fr. Matthew P. Schneider, LC

Right when things got crazy over COVID in the USA, a bunch of Catholics started suggesting interesting ideas to try to get to liturgies rather than obey so I pointed out obedience is a virtue.

Obedience to the spirit of a command is a virtue. If your bishop suspended public Masses, please don’t flood other Masses.

I’m seeing some Catholics post online about how to circumvent their bishop’s rules in response to COVID-19, and get the Eucharist. Different people have suggested things like finding out when the priest celebrates private Mass and slipping in, going to other Catholic Masses – either in other dioceses or in other rites – or going to Masses where the priests aren’t in Communion with the Pope.

Keep reading on Patheos.
