Ascension Thursday

A HOLY DAY Of Obligation, except in 15 Western US States, where this day is transferred to this Sunday:

Impossible in many cases to get to Mass, because the Mass Schedule is often the same as the WEEKDAY Schedule;

So to you in NYC, I suggest St. Agnes-East 43rd Street, where Masses began at 7:00AM, running every Half Hour up to the 8:30AM Mass, then Masses at 12Noon, 12:30PM, 1:00PM & 1:30PM, then at 5:15PM & the High Mass at 6:00PM. Ten Masses today & yesterday's 5:15PM Mass, makes for a total of 11 Masses;

I'm getting ready to head there now;

It's NOT the same as when EVERY Parish ran a Mass Schedule on its' Sunday Schedule. It's a different schedule today;

Could it be the Artificially Induced Priest Shortage?

After Vatican II, certain Seminary Officials attempted to weed out Orthodox Catholic Men, creating this shortage &, Sadly, Succeeded;
