Christmas is that special time of year when we come together as family and celebrate. Maybe we meet up with people we haven’t seen since last Christmas or even longer. Remembering the ‘Reason for the Season’ is often a difficult thing to do. Christmas – CHRISTmas literally means the ‘Coming of Christ’.
As part of coming together why not join us for our Christmas celebrations, you would be most welcome.
Special Note:
Christmas Day falls on a MONDAY. As Catholics we have a double obligation to attend the Mass for the 4th Sunday of Advent (taking place Saturday evenings – 23rd December/Sunday MORNING – Christmas Eve) AND the Christmas Mass (Sunday EVENING – Christmas Eve/Christmas Day). There are a number of ways you may choose to fulfil the obligations as set out in the image below. Click the image to enlarge and see your options.
The Mass times shown on this page are for those celebrations that cover your Christmas obligation. The regular Saturday evening/Sunday morning schedule will help cover the Advent Sunday 4 obligation.
