I am currently recovering from a broken ankle and because of my lack of mobility and the pain I am missing church services. [Waterworks]

Can anyone recommend any online Anglican (Conservative or Anglo-Catholic prefered) Services?
Live streaming would be excellent as I can imagine myself being there!
Any help would be very much appreciated! [Overused]

Trinity Wall Street (NYC) streams video and archives a very dignified liturgy. They even manage to webcast some weekday liturgies.

Washington National Cathedral also streams video and archives.

Grace Cathedral San Francisco streams audio and archives the most recent liturgy.

St. Thomas Fifth Avenue (NYC) streams audio and archives.

St. Clement Philadelphia podcasts their Missal masses. Solid Anglo-Catholic preaching and liturgy. Great music.

St. Thomas Toronto podcasts as well. Traditional Anglican.

Hope this helps.

Very little on the web beats BBC3's Choral Evensong.

Posted by Galilit (# 16470) on :

The Community of S. Mary the Virgin, Wantage, Oxon streams ALL its Offices live; all day every day (except actual Mass for obvious reasons).

P.S.Best of luck with the ankle. Try arnica.

Radio 4 still broadcasts Sunday Worship and the Daily Service, though you won't get any guarantee of particular churchmanship.

Recently i had what was basically a rather minor medical procedure, but it involved getting a chemical which made me very light-sensitive for about a month (no other ill effects fortunately) Throughout the month of September I had to avoid sunlight, and even overly bright indoor light, though computer and tv were ok. I was very happy when I discovered Trinity Wall Street's 11:15 Sunday Eucharist. I felt a little less isolated, especially since it was exactly at the same time as the 11:15 Eucharist at my church which I usually attend.

An unrelated idle question ...

Just out of idle curiosity, what are the obvious reasons? (Forgive me if I am dense and am missing something.)

For Mass/ the Eucharist you simply have to be there. Its intimate physical and material aspects require your intimate (or as much as you can manage) physical and material presence.

I think.

Earlier this year when I was recuperating from major surgery, I wasn't allowed to drive for several weeks. During this time I got my church 'fix' by watching some services on You Tube - eg there are some really watchable choral evensong services if you search. Also our priest brought me home communion about once a week which was very appreciated.

i-church

Hold them every Wednesday evening.

[Smile]

(PS - you need to go to the Courtyard to find them)

Radio 3 Choral Evensong is usually broadcast live, but then can be listened to for a week or so afterwards. The music is superb, usually led by a professional choir.

Radio 4's Sunday Morning live broadcast service is variable - depending on the church, the churchmanship, the choir (usually volunteers, not professionals), the congregation (open to all), but would give you a more participatory feel.

Alas, where's the Blessed Sacrament webcam when you need it? [Frown]

The monks no longer seem to maintain their online presence, but there is a Most Blessed Sacrament webcam available for adoration at this Louisville RC church... (link in side bar).

Favourited!

Will there be munx ?
Or even just a D-kin?
Or a Lady of the Parish?

I'm temporarily restricted to a rather cranky intertubes connection so I haven't paid enough visits to know!

So far, it has just been the Most Blessed Sacrament and associated monstrance, but time will no doubt tell!

Posted by Percy B (# 17238) on :

It's pretty static, which I guess exposition is. But it's hard to know if its live or whether the connection froze!

Posted by Galilit (# 16470) on :

Live - they have changed the flowers twice, you can see the candles bigger and smaller and also flickering.
Still not as dynamic as The Original of course where you saw the munx and lay-people's backs-of-heads.

Not sure why I can't get the MBS on my screen.....maybe it's not compatible with something or other on my pooter?

Or maybe I've been Raptured and no longer need to see It...??

What ever happened to that guy who would send you a host in the mail? And then you could have a 1 on 1 Communion with him....Not that I'm recommending him mind you. But he did smile all the time.
