Bus Tour to View Sculpture: “Angels Unawares”
Monday August 16, Basilica of St Mary, Minneapolis, MN
Bishop Donald Hying will accompany the tour
And celebrate the mass for Refugees and Exiles
Angels Unawares” is a sculpture commissioned by the Vatican and blessed by Pope Francis in September 2019. It now resides in St. Peter Square at the Vatican. This epic 20 foot long sculpture, depicts 140 refugees packed on a small boat. Sculptor Timothy Schmalz of the Toronto area was inspired by the Letter to the Hebrews 13:2 encouraging followers of Jesus to “show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.” Pope Francis’ priorities were revealed in his first trip as Pope to the Italian island of Lampedusa to bless and engage refugees. Angels Unawares inspires our obligation to entertain angels. More info on sculptor Timothy Schmalz at: https://timothypaulschmalz.com

-There will be no capacity limits at church. (outside of Christmas/Easter)
-For those vaccinated, there is no requirement for masks or distancing.
-As per CDC guidelines, those not vaccinated are encouraged to mask and distance; some pews will remain blocked for distancing. Anyone is welcomed to continue wearing a mask if you are more comfortable.
-Congregational singing will return. Our Psalm response, Alleluia, and the Eucharistic acclamations of Holy, Holy, Memorial and Great Amen are theologically the most important for musical participation as you are invited
into this prayer. Books with our hymns will return at a later date.
-Sign of peace will continue non-contact with a bow or other greeting.
We hope you will feel comfortable returning to mass. If you are in a higher risk category or have symptoms, it’s understandable that you remain at home.
Let us rejoice in the Lord!
