Instead of posting signs near the entrances of churches throughout the diocese, notification of the gun ban will be included in weekly Sunday bulletins

So guns are still banned.

My understanding is, Texas has required signage. You want to ban guns, you have to post the sign.

Any rule would be a church rule.

Texas does require signage for 30.06 and 30.07. OR, someone with apparent authority to act for the property may give verbal notice or written notice on a small card or other document. However, this wouldn't be considered effective notice for several reasons: not everyone gets a bulletin, no one reads all of it at that point, if ever, (I would guess the notice is buried in the middle/back of it), and they're handed out by volunteers (not people with authority to speak for the property) who don't tell you the policy or point out the policy written in the bulletin, and you get them AT THE END OF MASS. Also, I doubt the church has both 30.06 and 30.07 in it, and I doubt that type it as the specific language required by penal code.
