Cardinal Angelo De Donatis, Vicar General of Rome, announced today that Masses with the faithful will be suspended in the Diocese of Rome until April 3rd. This follows a decree from the Italian government suspending all public civil and religious ceremonies.
At the same time, the Diocese of Rome has called for a day of fasting and prayer on March 11th for the victims of the coronavirus.
To be in Rome, and not find a public Mass… that is hard to imagine! At least churches will remain open.
