Use the
links below to register
to attend an upcoming Weekend Mass.
Currently you may register
(as of Sundays at 9PM until 5PM on Thursdays)
for
Sat May 8th & Sun May 9th only.
All Parishioners are reminded to pick reservations
that accommodate the size of their family: example if you are 1-2 people
please don't pick a row for three or more people as this does not allow us
to maximize reservations as the Masses are getting more crowded. You will
be contacted if we need to change your reservation. Also, please make
reservations early in the week as we are filling up fast. If you are unable
to attend Mass and you have a reservation, please cancel by calling the
parish office (518 355-0421) Monday-Friday or email SMS-SGAMassReservations@smsparish.org

PLEASE CONTINUE TO JOIN US FOR
OUR LITURGIES AND SERVICES
Sunday
Liturgies will be Live-Streamed at 9:00am
via Facebook and YouTube
Facebook Livestream
-
Need a Facebook account in
order to access the
livestream.
-
Facebook page is www.facebook.com/SMSandSGA or
you can just search SMSandSGA
-
If you have a Facebook
account you usually get a
notification when there is a
livestream occurring.
-
Can watch the livestream at
9am on Sunday’s and will see
it on the page when it
begins.
-
We don’t livestream every
funeral - only if requested
by the family - but
the livestream begins in the
same way at the time of the
funeral.
-
The video will be archived
to the page so you can watch
the video even after the
livestream has ended. Might
take a few minutes
afterwards for the video to
be available to view.
-
If not visible on the
homepage of Facebook you
should click the “video” tab
and can see it there.
YouTube
Livestream
-
You do not need a YouTube
login to access the
livestream however it makes
it easier if you choose to
create a login and subscribe
to the YouTube Channel.
-
YouTube page is https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgobmTqOSwXCeUOS0f_zg2g or
you can search Church of
SMS and SGA.
-
If subscribed to the channel
you would get a notification
via email or on the YouTube
page when a livestream is
occurring.
-
Can watch the livestream at
9am on Sunday’s and will see
it on the page when it
begins.
-
We don’t livestream every
funeral - only if requested
by the family - but the
livestream begins in the
same way at the time of the
funeral.
-
The video will be archived
to the page so you can watch
the video even after the
livestream has ended. This
is different than Facebook
because it takes until the
next day (sometimes not a
full 24 hours but at least
the next morning) to be able
to view the video on the
YouTube channel homepage.
-
If subscribed to the channel
you can more easily find the
video and watch the
livestream even after it has
ended because of receiving
that notification. For
those who are on the
homepage it will not be
visible until the next day.
