Parishioners of St. Vincent de Paul and Holy Family Church can now view daily Mass live streamed online by the Toronto Oratory. Masses will be streamed in both the Traditional Roman Rite and the Novus Ordo Rite.
The vast majority of us are now beginning to realize what it feels like to be locked out of our churches. Please understand that there are Catholics who live "locked out" for years on end. Shut ins, those with physical disabilities, those in LTC., etc. The vast majority never get to see a live streamed Mass from their parish. And one's own parish is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.
Perhaps one blessing from this, is that every parish will henceforth continue live streaming Mass for the sick and shut in.
Let us begin to think about the vulnerable and disabled who are all around us if we just took the time to look. These suffering people have been blocked out by most of us from our lives as if they did not exist. They do, and they suffer greatly. As we now suffer, perhaps we can appreciate - just a little bit - how much more they suffer, who have to live in isolation and abandonment, year after year.
