CLEVELAND Roman Catholics in Ohio will soon no longer have an official excuse to avoid attending Mass.
All six dioceses throughout the state will reinstate the obligation to attend Sunday Mass and Holy Days of obligation beginning the weekend of June 5-6. The move will coincide with Gov. Mike DeWine s directive that all of Ohio s COVID-19 related health orders be lifted the preceding Wednesday, June 2.
Archbishop of Cincinnati Dennis M. Schnurr and the state s five other diocesan bishops (including Cleveland s Edward C. Malesic) released a statement that said, in part:
‘immediately informed the diocese of the allegations’ and notified local authorities.
On April 23, the diocese was informed by Harrison County authorities that charges have been filed. According to the diocese, none of the allegations occurred on school grounds.
In addition, the faculty of the high school and junior high schools were notified by Costello of the charges during a meeting after school on April 23.
‘The parents of all high school and junior high students were also notified about the incident through emails,’ the statement reads.
