Catholic Mass for the deaf and hard of hearing available , or is it?
"TV MASS FOR THE HOMEBOUND Make Sundays or Easter Mass complete for someone you love who cannot get to church. Please share the news about "My Sunday Mass" on TV: 9:00 a.m. on KPXD Channel 68, Prayer intentions from viewers, uplifting homilies, a Prayer for Spiritual Communion, and closed captioning make "My Sunday Mass" a time of spiritual comfort. For more information or to see the Mass online, visit www.MySundayMass.org. (TV or online liturgy does not meet the Sunday Mass obligation if you can come to church.) "

Comment from me:
Always great to hear about accessible Masses. I do get much out of watching Mass in CC. This is wonderful.

Of course once again, closed captioning is associated with TV only and the homebound,not live captioning at worship services for ambulatory folks. Why is that? Can you figure that out? Why CC on TV but not in the churches at Mass or church services?
Notice it says if you can come to Mass physically, the captioning Mass on TV doesn’t count as Sunday Mass Obligation. But — yet most churches won’t make their services accessible to the majority of deaf/hard of hearing when they do come physically even if the make it accessible on TV’s for their home . Captioning is the language of many who are deaf and hard of hearing. If you can caption TV, you can provide live captioning Masses as well. No need to wait for us to be non ambulatory to provide captioning.

I find that strange to tell people they have to go to Mass but not provide access once at Mass, but then provide access on TV with captioning.
Churches -we can't hear you. Please provide live captioning at services. There are many ambulatory deaf and hard of hearing Catholics. Just because we can walk to the church door doesn't mean we can hear. We can't hear you.
We need live real time captioning in churches like CART, Typewell, automatic voice recognition captioning and so forth.
Thank you!
