Catholic Mass Online – Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord (18 May 2023)



The Solemnity of the Ascension of the Lord commemorates the important occasion where Christ went to the heavens, making the way for us to one day join Him in the presence of our Father.

Mass Celebrated by His Eminence Cardinal William Goh.

PARTICIPATION OF MASSES THROUGH MEDIA
LIVE broadcasts of Masses via the Internet help Catholics to pray and is especially useful for with those who are home-bound, sick or cannot be at Mass for valid reasons.

“… those who hear or view these broadcasts should be aware that, under normal circumstances, they do not fulfill the obligation of attending Mass. Visual images can represent reality, but they do not actually reproduce it.(177) While it is most praiseworthy that the elderly and the sick participate in Sunday Mass through radio and television, the same cannot be said of those who think that such broadcasts dispense them from going to church and sharing in the eucharistic assembly in the living Church.” (57. SACRAMENTUM CARITATIS. Pope BENEDICT XVI)

The Catholic Mass today is celebrated all around the world. Here in Singapore, we are pleased to provide online, daily Catholic Mass live or recorded in English to all Catholics and anyone interested in the Catholic faith. During Catholic Masses, it is not uncommon to hear a homily about Catholic teachings and Catholic answers to life’s questions. The Holy Mass is beautiful and stems from Jesus. Expect Catholic prayers, Catholic hymns (Christian songs) that come from 2000 years of tradition and practice. All are welcome.
