Christmas is a season, not just a day
As a faith community, Catholics celebrate Christmas over several weeks from Dec. 25 through the feast of the Baptism of the Lord on Jan. 11. Christmas day marks the start of the Octave (or eight days) of Christmas. There is much to celebrate over the weeks of Christmas, and much to enter into more deeply. Too often, the days before Christmas are too busy to enter into the meaning of this feast or to reflect on the daily Scriptures and the graces offered to us.
Christmas Eve FAQs
Will Mass online be livestreamed? How can I watch?
Yes, our 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Christmas Eve Masses will broadcast live on YouTube. We will link to our YouTube Channel from our website during the broadcast.
Will there be overflow seating if the church is full?
Yes! We want everyone to feel welcome and comfortable during our Christmas Masses. If the church fills up, we’ll have extra chairs set up along the back of the church and in the narthex.
Can we bring children to Mass, and is it okay if they make noise?
Absolutely! We love welcoming families and children to Mass, especially during the joyful celebration of Christmas. We know little ones can sometimes be a bit wiggly or vocal—that’s part of the beauty of having them with us! If you feel your child needs a break, we have two cozy cry rooms directly in our church. They provide a clear view of the sanctuary through large windows and are equipped with full audio so you won’t miss a moment of the Mass. This is home, and we’re so glad you’re celebrating with us!
