Hey everyone. I am going to a Healing Mass tomorrow afternoon at 4 PM. Would this count for my Sunday obligation?

if 4pm is the time in your diocese considered “evening Mass” for Saturday then yes it “counts” why wouldn’t it? What is the time for your diocese? It seems to be 4pm most places.

I thought that it couldn’t be after 5 PM or something though? 🤷:confused:

Any Mass in any Catholic Rite after Vespers on Saturday evening (4:00pm I believe, correct me if I’m wrong as I don’t pray the Divine Office) and before 12:00 Midnight Monday morning will satisfy your Sunday obligation.

Masses after 5pm on Sunday aren’t that uncommon.

The actual window of fulfilling the Sunday obligation is Saturday vespera (determined to be around 4pm) till Sunday 11:59pm, a 32 hr window.
