Sunday English Mass (Novus Ordo – 1970 Roman Rite) –  Confessions during Mass

At Star of the Sea Parish, we celebrate Sunday Mass in English according to the 1970 Roman Calendar (Novus Ordo). This spoken Mass offers a reverent and prayerful setting for the Lord’s Day, inviting the faithful to gather as a community around the Word of God and the Holy Eucharist.

Celebrated ad orientem, the priest and faithful together turn toward the Lord, placing God at the center of the liturgy. The simplicity of the spoken Mass fosters recollection and attentiveness, allowing for deeper reflection on the Scriptures and participation in the Holy Sacrifice.

In this spirit of reverence and prayer, the faithful are nourished by the Eucharist and strengthened in grace, carrying the fruits of the Mass into their daily lives.
