Yes, we will offer the blessing of throats at all Masses at St. Martha Parish this weekend (Feb. 6-7), but it will be different this year because of the pandemic. Using the traditional blessing through the intercession of St. Blaise, the priest will bless everyone’s throats at one time from the altar. Even though it may feel a bit different this year, blessing throats this way is in accord with the rite in the Catholic Book of Blessings, and it has the same spiritual effect as individual blessings. We look forward to seeing you this weekend!
Yes, blessing of the throats will be done at all Masses. God Bless!
