Participating in Mass at Home

Dear friend,

I pray you are doing well. Our communal separation from the Eucharist is a true spiritual dryness for us. We offer Mass everyday live at 8am, in the hope to keep us united spiritually while we experience physical distance. Many organizations within our Church community are assisting Catholics through this challenging time. For years, I have used the print and the app version of Magnificat to prepare for Mass.  The app has all the prayers and readings for each Mass. During this time, Magnificat is offering the app free here: https://us.magnificat.net/free. Without access to the missalettes at church, I hope this app allows you to participate more during online Mass. As with Mass at church, feel free to stand, sit and kneel at the appropriate times. No matter if you watch live in the morning, or participate in the Mass later in the day, take some time to prepare for Mass, quiet the environment, turn off other technology, and focus on the Father’s perfect love for all His children. The more we can spiritually and mentally unite ourselves to the Mass, the more we allow God to guide and inspire us. May the Lord be with you.

God bless,

Fr. David
