Bishop Soto finally opened our doors and restored the Mass. We forced the Diocese to stop treating our faith like it was nonessential. Keep watching the Bishop because we will not let them lock us out of our own churches ever again.
Bishop Soto: We have been kept from our beloved sacraments for too long. When every open grocery store, hardware store, and liquor store are crowded with people, Our Churches remain empty. Our Lord is left alone; unable to even be visited by the faithful who long for Him so entirely. There is nothing more “essential” than the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, offered in The Sacrifice of the Mass. The faithful demand the return of the Holy Mass. Let the priests be free to open their parishes as their flock so desperately longs for. Please, Continue offering a dispensation for those at risk for the worst of this disease. Catholics have sought the Mass at far greater risk of life than what is threatened by this virus.
Our priests hands are tied. Please, do not allow our pastors to be caught between the desire to FEED THEIR FLOCK and their obedience to you. We hunger.
‘He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love Me?” Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, “Do you love Me?” And he said to Him, “Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You.” Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep”.’(John21:17). Bishop Soto feed your flock!
Bishop Soto continues to ignore our pleas while the liquor stores remain packed and our pews stay empty. I am tired of the silence from the diocese office because they clearly think we will just go away if they wait long enough. We are not going anywhere until he opens these doors and feeds his flock.

We are suffering without our Eucharistic Lord. We are desperately in need of His graces now more than ever. PLEASE stop withholding the Sacraments from us. Your flock is starving!

While crowded groc stores, drug stores, etc have remained open, Our attendance to mass is essential for spiritual health. We are responsible to maintain proper spacing and can adhere to safety precautions.

Outdoor masses are an option, also temporarily increasing/doubling number of masses would provide distancing opportunity. Let’s be creative and make mass and all the sacraments as available as possible, rather than not at all. Please!

I am praying for all involved in closing our churches. Why is it we can go to the grocery store or hardware store, but the most important of all can remain closed. How is our church considered non essential? Our bishop needs to stand up to this! Please open what is most essential to our souls!

People need the faith, fellowship, and most of all the Holy Eucharist to get through this extremely challenging time. Denying Jesus to His people is the greatest atrocity! We implore you to reopen the churches! Add more services with less people. Block off every other row of seating to ensure social distancing. This must happen!

The blood of the martyrs calls for leadership in the church. We can no longer live in fear. Is it no wonder that so many do not believe in the true presence of Jesus in the Eucharist when we are so willing to close the doors to the source and summit of the church.

Time to open the churches in Sacramento. Where is your virtue of fortitude?? I’ve been flying in airplanes, social distancing—Not!! While the secular world is opening up, you are holding out on God— forget Obedience to the Marxist governor Neusom—Have the courage to open the churches and fully.
