Up at the North Pole Santa's elves are packing the sleigh, and here in the church the musicians are practicing for Christmas Midnight Mass. All for Jesus! O come. let us adore Him: on Christmas eve at 5 and 7, Midnight, and Christmas morning at 10:30. The childrens' pageant is at the 5 pm Christmas Eve Mass -- be forewarned: last year people were standing in the parking lot! This year we will have overflow seating in the Parish Center with a live audio/video feed from the church. 7 pm should be a bit less jammed. Our wonderful choir will begin a Christmas concert at 11:15pm, prior to the Midnight Mass (yes, our Midnight Mass is still at Midnight!). 10:30 Mass on Christmas morning is always a beautiful celebration as well. Be sure to come early for any Mass -- seats go fast (always a good sign). Merry Christmas to all!
