Join us for Mass!
Prayers of the Mass focus on the four finalities of the Holy Sacrifice: Adoration, Thanksgiving, Atonement, and Petition. The actions of the clergy and servers, the incense rising to Heaven, and the use of Gregorian chant elevate the soul toward God and the Real Presence. Heaven and Earth meet! What does it mean to be worthy of the reception of Our Lord? Catholics in a state of grace may receive Holy Communion. A 1-hour fast from all food and drink, excluding plain water and medicine, is required.
Low-Gluten hosts are available—please let Fr. Bart know your need prior to Mass.
Ad Orientem
All Masses at St. Anthony are said ad orientem; the priest faces "liturgical" east when praying to God on our behalf. [View the video on the significance of ad orientem]
