In 2025, the Church celebrates the Jubilee Year of Hope. The theme “Pilgrims of Hope”, was inspired by Romans 5:5 – “Hope does not disappoint”. Pope Francis hopes that the Jubilee will “be a moment of genuine, personal encounter with the Lord Jesus, the “door” (cf. Jn 10:7.9) of our salvation, whom the Church is charged to proclaim always, everywhere and to all as “our hope” (1 Tim 1:1).”
The Jubilee Year will begin with the opening of the Holy Door at St. Peter’s Basilica on December 24, 2024. Locally, Jubilee 2025 will begin with the opening Mass at the Cathedral of the Good Shepherd, which will be the local pilgrimage site for the Archdiocese of Singapore throughout the Holy Year.

Mass celebrated by His Eminence Cardinal William Goh.
The broadcasts of Masses online are supplements, not substitutes, for physical attendance in church. These recordings of Masses in Singapore Catholic churches, are offered to those who cannot attend in person due to illness, care-giving, or with legitimately valid reasons. For those watching, may you find comfort and strength.
"...the Church has legislated that “on Sundays and other holy days of obligation the faithful are bound to participate in the Mass.” (CCC 2180, cf Canon Law 1247.) It also states that “unless excused for a serious reason (e.g. illness, the care of infants, or vulnerable to infectious disease) or given dispensation by their own pastor, those who deliberately fail in this obligation commit a grave sin.” (CCC 2181, cf Canon Law 1245). This law is imposed not to make our lives inconvenient but to underscore the grave obligation that active participation in the Sunday Eucharist is vital for Christian life. " Cardinal William Goh (Pastoral Letter, 10 Mar 2023)
"... those who hear or view these broadcasts should be aware that, under normal circumstances, they do not fulfill the obligation of attending Mass. Visual images can represent reality, but they do not actually reproduce it.(177) While it is most praiseworthy that the elderly and the sick participate in Sunday Mass through radio and television, the same cannot be said of those who think that such broadcasts dispense them from going to church and sharing in the eucharistic assembly in the living Church." (57. SACRAMENTUM CARITATIS. Pope Benedict XVI)
“Because the faithful are obliged to attend Mass unless there is a grave impediment...” (49. DIES DOMINI, St John Paul II )
The Catholic Mass is celebrated all around the world. We are pleased to provide these recordings of Catholic Masses to you in English. Expect to hear homilies about Catholic teachings, Catholic answers to life’s questions, Catholic prayers, Catholic hymns (Christian songs) that come from 2000 years of tradition and practice.
