In response to new restrictions on public access to divine worship, the Pluscarden Community started live streaming services shortly before Christmas.

Past posts, with notice of forthcoming ones, can be found on our live streaming page: https://www.pluscardenabbey.org/live

We are feeling our way as we go, trying to master the necessary technology, and gradually to improve the quality of production. Given our very limited resources, however, truly professional standards must remain firmly outside our reach.

So far we are attempting to show Mass, Vespers and Compline, more or less each day. Viewers will readily understand that it is not possible to guarantee perfect consistency here.

Our Diocese has circulated a protocol on the live streaming of religious services, whose guidance we are happy to accept. This includes necessary cautions about data protection and personal privacy laws. Such cautions normally exclude showing detailed film of members of Choir or Congregation in place.
