Masses Online through Facebook LIVE
Dear Parishioners and Friends,
We will be utilizing Facebook Live to offer you updated messages and live recordings of Mass. Here you will find a link to St. Stephen Church Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/ststephenbradshaw/. You do not need a Facebook login to access the site. Everyone is welcome to use it.
Through Facebook Live only, we will have:- Sunday Mass at 9:15 am (closed to public; only through Facebook video)
Please note: None of these events will be held in the Church for the public. You must visit Facebook Live to have access.
Mass Intentions will be included during our Masses.
Since we are implementing our Precautionary Measures of suspending Masses, we encourage all faithful to pray the Act of Spiritual Communion since we are unable to receive the Sacrament of Holy Communion personally. We encourage you to pray this simple prayer upon watching our live streaming of the Masses here on our Facebook page while the Communion proper is ongoing.
How to make an Act of Spiritual Communion:- Make the Sign of the Cross
- Read the Mass Readings
- Recite the Prayer of Spiritual Communion
I will continue to keep all of you in my prayers during this challenging time.
God Bless,
Father George
