Livestream Ministry to Resume September 6th
We want to inform the parish community that our Livestream Ministry volunteers will be taking a short break for the summer. We look forward to resuming our regularly-scheduled livestream services in September starting with the September 6th Saturday Mass. We can’t wait to connect you to our regular Saturday evening Masses at that time.
However, we may live-stream Masses on an ad hoc basis in August, depending on the availability of a Livestream crew member being present at a particular Saturday Mass. But as we want to give our volunteers a well-deserved break from a ministry they’ve been involved with for coming up on five years now, we cannot guarantee it. Subscribe to the YouTube channel and you will be notified of any Masses that are live-streamed during the summer months.
Thank you for your continued support and understanding. Have a blessed summer!
Pat McIver and Tom Chmara, Livestream Ministry Co-Leads
