The Rev. Rick Friebel celebrates Easter Mass on April 12, 2020, at SS. Peter and Paul Catholic Church, Ottawa. In the early days of the pandemic, the church used a laptop computer to stream services over Facebook Live. The church has upgraded its equipment since then, moving to a more powerful camera that zooms and pans from the back of the church that doesn’t leave electronic equipment near the altar.
