Just curious: have the Anglicans suspended their services too?
Regardless, streaming is your friend for online Mass.
 
C of E suspended services a day or two ago. I believe I read it on here and posted that Catholics wouldn’t be far behind in doing the same then.
 
Yes, apparently Anglicans, Catholics, the Church of Scotland, Methodists, United Reformed Church, Assemblies of God, and the Baptist Union of Great Britain.

The Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of Great Britain and the Commonwealth has also suspended all meetings and activities, including prayer services. Reform Jews have done the same. The Muslim Council of Britain is strongly recommending that all mosques in the UK should suspend all congregational activities.

All public Catholic Masses in Washington State are cancelled. We will all remember this as the year we had to give up Mass for Lent. I don’t expect we’ll be able to gather for Easter either.
 
I think the re-dedication is scheduled for March 29. Will that go on, despite no Mass? I hope so!
 
I always pray for England. Despite all of its misdeeds, I still love lots of British bands and spent a summer at Oxford many moons ago. Plus my husband was about half English.
 
England has been here before , and the sacraments were denied for six years .

Pope Innocent III placed the kingdom of England under an interdict for six years between March 1208 and May 1213, after King John refused to accept the pope’s appointee Stephen Langton as Archbishop of Canterbury
 
This has just happened here in New Zealand. I know my Archbishop is doing what is right, but I am naturally devastated.

Officially (wink wink)

If anyone can not get to mass in the UK for one reason or another it is live-streamed in any case, 11:00 on Sundays and 12:10 on weekdays (GMT time). The same website provides live masses for America also, there is a timetable you can check.
