TV Mass Apostolate

The Sunday Mass began its broadcast on Christmas Day, 1970 in the New York Tri-State area. Addressing the need of the aged and the infirm to be sustained in their Catholic faith, this outreach afforded them the opportunity to join in worship, if only electronically. For those whose circumstances often lead to a sense of isolation, The Sunday Mass provided a television parish where one could not only participate in the celebration of the Holy Eucharist, but could also feel a sense of belonging and community. The familiar faces of our presiders, choir and lectors reinforced the feeling of being part of a parish. The Sunday Mass is now broadcast each week on UPtv as well as on many local stations.

Today The Sunday Mass serves Christians of all denominations and ages as well as expatriates and service men and women seeking an English-speaking Sunday Mass via the internet. Even for those who do attend Mass at their local parish each week, many still include The Sunday Mass in their weekly worship to further enrich their spiritual life.
















 

TV Mass Apostolate is a weekly opportunity for homebound and infirm individuals to join with others through prayer in celebrating the beauty and gift of the sacrifice of the Mass.
