Deo Gratias Holy Hour and Midnight Mass
- Details:
- Dec. 31, 11:00 pm - Octave of Christmas
- Join us at 11 pm for a Holy Hour (Deo Gratias Service) and for 12 am Midnight Mass.
During the Deo Gratias service the names of those who were married, baptized, or buried at the parish are read as we thank God for the year and ask graces for the New Year. This Eucharistic Holy Hour of thanksgiving includes the chanting of Matins and the Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament.
At the conclusion of the Holy Hour we chant the solemn “Te Deum,” the church’s Hymn of Thanksgiving, for which we can receive a plenary indulgence.
The “Deo Gratias” Service is followed by the Tridentine Latin High Mass for the Feast of the Circumcision of our Lord, which is also the Octave Day of Christmas, and a Holy Day of Obligation. The Mass begins at 12 o’clock Midnight and fulfills the holy day obligation.
