I have a question about Divine Mercy Sunday which is next Sun. If the church is having a special mass, confessions, recitation of the chaplet, all happening at 3:00 in the afternoon, does that Mass qualify as your Sunday obligation or do you have to go to Mass twice that day?
 
I am guess it does, at my parish we are having confessionals available that morning (8 priests apparently!), then at 3pm we have our Mass, along with other events around it.

any Mass on any Sunday fulfills your obligation no matter what time
most parishes though adhere to their regular Mass schedule and have at 3pm or therebouts a recitation of the Diving Mercy chaplet, not Mass, at least around here.

apparently it is a big deal to add a Mass to the regular schedule, maybe because very few parishes have more than one priest, so it is not as common to have Mass during the DM hour
