12:00 p.m. | The Lady Chapel

The Chantry Chapel Reredos at Saint Thomas Church Fifth Avenue

Please note that there will be no livestream of today’s service of Shrine Prayers and Mass.

On Mondays through Saturdays at 12pm we offer prayers at the shrine of Our Lady of Fifth Avenue that include the traditional recitation of the Angelus, prayers from the diocesan and Anglican cycle, and intercessions. Shrine prayers, and the daily Mass that follows, are audio livestreamed and then available on-demand.

Even if you cannot be with us in church you can participate in our liturgy by making an act of spiritual communion, sending us a prayer request, or by purchasing a candle to be lit at the shrine.

Finally, please consider making a gift or pledge to help support our mission.

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.
