When Sarah Willette watched her first livestreamed Mass, it became a family reunion.
All public masses have been suspended indefinitely in the Edmonton Archdiocese in an effort to contain the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus. Masses will be livestreamed with no congregation present.
Instead of being disappointed, Willette gathered a group of 22 family members from across the province to watch the livestreamed St. Joseph’s Basilica Mass together on March 22 – the first Sunday where no public Mass was celebrated.
