Page 4 May 12, 2019 READING CATHOLIC COMMUNITY Mass Schedule Survey Last Sunday, we asked for your feedback on several proposed Collaborative weekend Mass schedules. If you were away and missed the announcements, please pick up a Mass Schedule Survey at one of the entrances. We are looking for your feedback, since it will be necessary to create a combined weekend Mass schedule for the Reading Catholic Collaborative. The Archdiocese instructs us to establish a Mass schedule that would be manageable by a single priest. The reason for this might not be obvious, but even with two priests assigned to a Collaborative, it is inevitable that one may be away, or one might fall ill— leaving one priest to cover the weekend Masses.
