Many people are understandably cautious about gathering during COVID-19. While all masses in St Stephen and St Andrews continue to follow New Brunswick protocols, including social distancing and mandatory masks, we have other options available too.

(1) Masses every Sunday morning at 9 am are streamed live to the St Croix Parish Facebook page. If you've joined this group, you can view the mass at this time. These live streams are also saved on the page for viewing later, if 9 am is not an option.

(2) Another new solution allows parishioners to receive the Eucharist. You may attend the Saturday 4 pm mass in St Stephen and listen to the mass from the safety of your car on FM 90.3 thanks to the support of a parishioner. If you notify the usher who will be located outside the church that you are doing this, they will notify Fr Suresh who will come to your car following the mass to offer you the Body of Christ.

(3) Parishioners who are shut-in and not available to travel can also contact the church office and arrange for you to receive the Eucharist at home.

We are hopeful this is a solution that will benefit many as we move forward through this year of challenge.
