Will a 4 PM Healing Mass on Sunday count for the weekly obligation?
Hey everyone. I need an answer to this as soon as possible because if the Healing Mass at 4 PM today won't count for my weekly obligation then I need to go to a Mass this morning. Will a 4 PM Healing Mass today count for my weekly obligation?

Yea it counts. Any mass you go to on a Sunday counts. If you're speaking of today meaning Saturday, then it still counts.

Besides, even if the healing mass did not fulfill your obligation, you did not know that. And you can't be guilty of a sin unless you have knowledge, and intent of the will (which you obviously do not,), so don't sweat it.

Well, I haven't yet gone to the Healing Mass. I am going later. That is why I posted this thread because I want to be sure that I do fulfill the weekly obligation.

A definite Yes.

Can. 1248 §1. A person who assists at a Mass celebrated anywhere in a Catholic rite either on the feast day itself or in the evening of the preceding day satisfies the obligation of participating in the Mass.
