MARYLAND HEIGHTS, Mo. (KMOX) - Rev. Bob Evans of Holy Spirit Catholic Church wanted to feel a little less alone when he served mass amid the coronavirus pandemic. So he filled the church with some familiar faces.
There are more than 500 photos of his parishioners taped to the back of pews in Maryland Heights church.

Since members cannot attend in person because of the coronavirus pandemic, his congregation of about 1,500 people is now represented in 2D form during mass.
Evans still performs the weekly service via Facebook Live.
