We are in the holiday spirit

Christmas Eve / Day Mass Times
Every so often, the 4th Sunday of Advent actually falls on December 24th. So we have the opportunity and regular expectation for Mass on Saturday, 12/23 or Sunday morning, 12/24. Then our full-on celebration of Christmas begins later with Christmas Eve Masses. Please see the modified schedule below for our parishes. And remember to pray for and thank all those who labor to prepare music, decorate the churches, serve at the liturgies, and plan the logistics for this exciting time!
