NOTICE: With the Vigil of Pentecost, the Diocese of Providence is opening liturgical life. It has made available diocesan guidelines and requirements for the safe return to the pew, to be followed throughout the diocese. Notably, the faithful still have a general dispensation from attendance at Mass on Sundays and holy days. Portsmouth Abbey also welcomes worshipers back to the Church of St. Gregory the Great with the Pentecost celebration. In view of this, Fr. Michael Brunner has announced the following practices all should note for this return.
