A sensory friendly Mass is a comfortable environment for those who might experience sensory challenges. These Masses might be helpful for those with autism, down syndrome, ADHD, or other disabilities. Both children and adults with disabilities and their families are welcome to join us.

What can I expect?

• Reduced lighting
• No incense or bells
• Spoken responses
• A Capella Music (sung closing hymn with no instruments)
• Accessible worship aids
• Literal language in the Homily
• A shorter Mass (about 45 minutes)
• Stigma-free environment
  • Participants are encouraged to get up and move around or make noise as needed
• Chapel designated as a "quiet space"
