Amid COVID pandemic, changes planned for Ash Wednesday in Jacksonville


Parishioners at San Jose Catholic Church s Ash Wednesday service, and others across the country, had a change awaiting them when it came time for their priest to perform a traditional Lenten ritual.
Instead of having ashes daubed in the sign of the cross on foreheads, the Rev. Remek Blaszkowski sprinkled it over their heads.
In these days of the COVID-19 pandemic, all U.S. Catholic churches were told to go to a no-touch ritual at Ash Wednesday services that usher in the Lenten and Easter seasons.
I think it came as a form of surprise, but we live during the COVID times, so in a certain way we have been conditioned to new and different ways of conducting business and even liturgy,  Blaszkowski said.

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. The 10th bishop of the Catholic Diocese of St. Augustine will officially submit a letter of resignation to Pope Francis on Feb. 5, according to diocesan officials.
Bishop Felipe Estevez will leave the office he has served since mid-2011 because the mandatory retirement age for bishops is 75.
As was done when Bishop Victor Galeone retired in 2011 after replacing John Snyder in 2001, the pope will make the ultimate decision as to who replaces Estevez.  ....
