Sunday Masses Return This Weekend
08/13/2020
The Department of Campus Ministry will welcome the SLU community back to campus with its first Sunday evening Mass at 8 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 16. The Mass will be live-streamed on the SLU Campus Ministry YouTube channel.
David Suwalsky, S.J., vice president for mission and identity, will preside.
For the foreseeable future, Masses and other Catholic Sacraments on-campus will be available in modified and/or virtual form due to the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) public health concern. In line with the public precautions in place due to the pandemic, those within the Archdiocese of St. Louis are dispensed from their in-person Sunday obligation.
For those who would like an in-person option for Mass attendance, see the schedule below. Worshipers must must register to attend Mass at Saint Francis Xavier College Church.
