Holy Child of Jesus Church – Dumas issued the following announcement on Dec. 23.
Parishioners, Because Fr. Mark will not be here, there will be no Mass on Jan 1st at St. Mark. The Ministry Big list shows a Mass for the Solemnity of Mary because, had Fr. mark been here we would have celebrated the Holy Day. But it has been canceled.
The substitute priest from Subiaco will hold a vigil Mass at St. Mary's in McGehee at 5PM on Saturday, but that is a vigil for the Sunday Mass, not for the Solemnity of Mary.
I wanted to make sure to clear this up because of the change in plans.
