The live streaming of the mass held by Father Paulo H Prigol, chaplain of ship-visiting network Stella Maris Manila, to the crew of an offshore support vessel utilised capabilities that Tapiit has under an agreement as an Inmarsat Certified Application Provider (CAP).
The broadcast was made to the vessel sailing from America while Father Paulo conducted the mass from Manila while production of the filming was managed live by Tapiit’s team in Liverpool.
Tapiit sees the livestreaming of the mass, which was also linked to seafarers family, as a way to help hundreds of thousands of crew stranded onboard vessels beyond their contract duration due to Covid-19 travel restrictions

The ‘Simbang Gabi’ mass celebrated by Father Paolo was part of a traditional nine-day series of masses practised in the Philippines in anticipation of Christmas.
