O God, the maker of heaven and earth, you gave your venerable servant, the holy and gentle Polycarp, the boldness to confess Jesus Christ as King and Savior and the steadfastness to die for his faith: Give us grace, following his example, to share the cup of Christ and to rise to eternal life; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

12:00 p.m. | The Lady Chapel

The Chantry Chapel Reredos at Saint Thomas Church Fifth Avenue

Daily Shrine Prayers and Mass will be available via audio livestream.

On Mondays through Saturdays at 12pm we offer prayers and intercessions at the shrine of Our Lady of Fifth Avenue. These prayers precede the Eucharist and include the traditional recitation of the Angelus, prayers from the diocesan and Anglican cycle, and intercessions.

Intercessions can be left online (using the link below) or in the church itself. You can also have names added to the prayer list by purchasing a digital candle. Finally, we invite those of you who listen to this service online to make an act of spiritual communion, the text of which you can access below along with shrine prayer and candle lighting requests.

An Act of Spiritual Communion

My Jesus,

I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things,
and I desire to receive you into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive you sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you.
Never permit me to be separated from you.
Amen.
