Liturgy This Week
Feast of the Most Holy Body & Blood of Christ - June 14, 2020
Note: this is NOT a video of mass; the Eucharist is being celebrated on our behalf by the Archbishop and others (links can be found at archstl.org). This is a glimpse of what you would have heard and seen at St. Vincent's this weekend if we could have all been here together. We hope to re-open the church by the end of June. Stay tuned.
This Sunday is the Feast of the Most Holy Body & Blood of Christ. Some people still refer to it as "Corpus Christi Sunday", although the old feast of Corpus Christ was separate from the Feast of the Precious Blood. Now we celebrate the combined feast.
-- We cannot get into the church building at the moment, so we had to film from a location in the office building.
BTW, we don't have any coffee and donuts today. However, if you stick around 'til the end -- we do have a special treat for you!
A special thank you to our friends @ OneLicense.net who make sure that our artists get paid for their work. Here at St. V's, we are proud to maintain a license so that artists get paid.
We cannot gather together physically today, so we join together in spirit with:

It wouldn't be church without a collection, right?
Even though you can't join us in person right now, we still have our neighbors who are homeless who need food every day. We continue to provide food - with heightened levels of safety. These extraordinary measures cost us more money than usual. If you can assist us in our mission to our community, please donate what you can.
