Hello, since the requirement to participate in the Mass on the Feast of the Assumption tomorrow is abrogated where I live to Sunday, can one still attend a Vigil Mass on Saturday and have it count for both the feast and Sunday obligation? Also should we observe the feast day like a Sunday with rest et al?
 
I’m not sure how they do it at your parish, but at mine the Sunday Mass or Saturday Vigil readings are the ones coordinated with the feast of the Assumption

That is not licit. The Sunday readings and propers take precedence over a Saturday celebration’s.

I think this would happen when Assumption falls on a Sunday, though. There are some solemnities which take precedence over Sundays in Ordinary Time.

Yeah I was actually just thinking about this. I mis-understood. But some feast days that occur during the week are sometimes allowed to be moved to be celebrated on Sunday correct? Our archdiocese has done this before

Yes, such as Ascension of the Lord.

If *the requirement to participate in the Mass on the Feast of the Assumption … is abrogated *what do you mean by asking if attending a Mass will count for … the feast? *Count *in what sense?

:confused:

If the Church tell us that we can fulfil the day of obligation by attending the Sunday mass and we attend the Vespers mass on Saturday we have fulfilled our obligation completely that is the day of obligation AND the Sunday mass.

The Vespers mas IS the Sunday liturgy complete with the same readings.

Peace!

If the requirement is abrogated, then there is no obligation. Your phrase “abrogated to Sunday” indicates to me that you are conflating two things: the abrogation of something (which is removing it) and the transfer of a feast day to some other day. The Assumption has not been transferred to Sunday. Parishes will be celebrating the 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time (in the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite).

If you wish to attend Mass celebrating the Solemnity of the Assumption, you may go on Saturday morning. This is probably the only Mass which will use the texts for that feast.
 
Sorry about any confusion Tee, but what i meant to ask was if one attends the Mass at the Saturday Vigil would it be required to participate at a Mass on Sunday? I

No. It won’t be a vigil, it is simply a Sunday Mass on Saturday evening. But you always and everywhere fulfill your obligation for a solemnity (that includes Sundays) when you attend Mass anytime on that day or the evening (vespere) before.
