    OR   

Act of Spiritual Communion 

My Jesus, I believe that you are truly present in the holy Eucharist.  I love you above all things and I desire to receive you into my soul.  Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally come at least spiritually into my heart.  I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you.  Never permit me to be separated from you.  Amen.

DISPENSATION FROM SUNDAY MASS OBLIGATION ENDS JUNE 26th - 27th

We will continue to live stream Masses for those whom the obligation does not apply

Due to the progress our country has made in curbing the Coronavirus, Bishop Knestout is discontinuing the dispensation of the faithful from attending Sunday Mass, and encourages the faithful to full in-person celebration of the Mass. 

This obligation does not apply to those who are ill; those who have reason to believe that they were recently exposed to the coronavirus, another serious or contagious illness; those who are confined to their home, a hospital, or nursing facility; or those with serious underlying health conditions.

Safety protocols and other liturgical directives remain in effect until modified or revoked by the Bishop.

Buffering or Interruptions During Mass

We have been notified of several instances of parishioners experiencing buffering or interruptions during our Live-streamed Masses. We have contacted the Diocese to check our live feed and they have found it to be streaming efficiently.  They have found that problems viewing the live-streams are related to the internet provider or internet speed used in your home.

Here are some helpful tips to keep Live Mass from buffering:

• Only stream from 1 device at a time. Turn off any devices (tablets, computers, DVR’s, gaming devices or cell phones) you are not using during Mass.
• Refresh your page if you experience a problem or exit out of Facebook and click the link again.
• Although we encourage you to experience Mass as a live event, if refreshing/reloading doesn’t resolve the buffering issue, watch the recorded video which will be available until midnight.

Homilies continue to be posted to our website and our soundcloud page the Tuesday after Sunday Masses.
