Holy Days Of Obligation

After their general annual meeting in 1991, the National Conference of Catholic Bishops (NCCB) of the United States issued the following decree on Dec. 13.

In addition to Sunday, the days to be observed as holy days of obligation in the Latin-rite dioceses of the United States, in conformity with Canon 1246, are as follows:

• Jan. 1, the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God.
• Thursday of the Sixth Week of Easter, the Solemnity of the Ascension.
• Aug. 15, the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
• Nov. 1, the Solemnity of All Saints.
• Dec. 8, the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception.
• Dec. 25, the Solemnity of the Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Whenever Jan. 1, Aug. 15 or Nov. 1 falls on a Saturday or on a Monday, the precept to attend Mass is abrogated.

This decree of the NCCB was approved and confirmed by the Holy See and became effective Jan. 1, 1993.
