Following a response on July 6, 2022, from the Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, I am implementing the motu proprio in the Diocese of Richmond. In June 2022, I requested permission for several parishes to continue the celebration of the Traditional Latin Mass in their parish churches. At that time, I relayed to the communities that a time of study and reflection would commence in order to determine the most appropriate course of action to remain faithful to the Holy Father's directives. On July 16, 2021, Pope Francis issued the Apostolic Letter motu proprio, Traditionis Custodes, issuing new norms governing the celebration of the Mass according to the Missal of 1962.Īt the time of the motu proprio and the subsequent release of the Responsa ad Dubia, published by the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments on December 18, 2021, I instructed the priests presently celebrating the antecedent liturgy that they were free to continue supporting the communities utilizing this form of the Mass, after requesting permission from me personally. => bishop-knestout-statement-on-deadly-shooting-following-richmond-high-school-graduation => Bishop Knestout Statement on Deadly Shootingįollowing Richmond High School Graduation “In this month of June, in which we celebrate the Sacred Heart of Jesus, may our Lord bring consolation and healing to the lives affected and suffering because of yesterday’s violence.

What should have been a day of celebration for families and of student achievements – instead is marred by gun violence. “This callous act and subsequent chaotic, terrorizing scene occurred just yards away from our Cathedral of the Sacred Heart, causing fear and pandemonium for so many leaving the ceremony. “Seven months after an act of gun violence took the lives of three University of Virginia college students, we, in our diocese, are faced with another wrenching act of violence. “Yesterday a violent shooting occurred, this time following a Richmond public high school graduation, resulting in the loss of life and multiple injuries. ) AND wp_posts.post_type = 'post' AND ((wp_posts.post_status = 'publish')) AND wp_posts.ID NOT IN (103237)īishop Knestout Statement on Deadly Shooting Following Richmond High School Graduation Wp_term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id IN (28) FROM wp_posts LEFT JOIN wp_term_relationships ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_term_relationships.object_id)
