Mass For You At Home is the longest running Australian religious television programme; it is Australia's third longest running television programme. The programme has been broadcast by Network Ten since August 1971 and is intended to allow for observant Catholics, particularly those with mobility problems, to participate in a mass from their own home. Mass For You At Home is broadcast on Eleven on Sundays at 5.30am, Network Ten on Sundays at 6am and Aurora Channel on Foxtel every day. The programme is also available online here and includes a simultaneous translation into Auslan. The programme typically has thousands of viewers around Australia.

Geoffrey Baron was a celebrant on this programme for 30 years. During 2006 Baron received national attention as a result of an altercation with teenagers that was recorded and subsequently uploaded to YouTube.
