In the multitude of Your tender mercies prepare my heart that I may enter Your house to worship and confess Your holy name; through Jesus Christ, my God and Lord. Amen.

I would like to thank all who have participated in our Advent activities: the Advent Retreat, our Advent Penance Service, and Breakfast with Santa, Eucharistic Adoration, and the Novena of Masses. I pray that all of these activities have been spiritually edifying this Advent Season. As we are now on the doorsteps of Christmas and have a better look at our Christmas Masses, we will be adding a 2:00 pm Christmas Eve Mass in addition to our 4:00 pm, 6:30 pm, 12:00 midnight, 8:00 am, and 10:00 am Masses. Our hope is that this will help to accommodate a potentially large attendance at the Masses in addition to our lack of space due to Covid restrictions. In addition, we will have the Social Hall ready, equipped with live streaming of the Mass, for overflow crowds if needed. In the cases where the Social Hall is used, Holy Communion distribution will take place at the proper time during the Mass.

  • Christmas Midnight Mass Homily 2018
    1 CHRISTMAS MIDNIGHT MASS HOMILY 2018 Most Reverend John O. Barres St. Agnes Cathedral As we celebrate Christmas Midnight Mass 2018, we also celebrate tonight the 200th Anniversary of the Christmas Hymn “Silent Night.” A Jesuit priest Fr. Edward Schmidt retells the story in a recent issue of America magazine: “On Christmas Eve 1818, in the church of St. Nicholas in Oberndorf near Salzburg, “Stille Nacht” (“Silent Night”) was sung for the first time. The words to “Silent Night” were the work of Fr. Joseph Mohr, a young priest in Oberndorf. He wrote them in 1816 as a reflection on peace after a summer of violence in Salzburg. On Christmas Eve two years later, he asked his friend Franz Xaver Gruber, a schoolteacher in the neighboring town of Arnsdorf and also the organist in Oberndorf, to set his words to music. Gruber did so, and together that evening at Christmas Eve Mass, the two performed “Silent Night” for the gathered faithful, Mohr singing and Gruber playing the guitar, since the parish organ was not working. “Silent Night” was an immediate sensation…The carol has been translated into some 300 languages. The first English translation appeared in New York City in 1851.” 1818 to 2018 – 200 years. The Hymn “Silent Night” is relatively young historically but it is always new and fresh, inspirational and uplifting every Christmas that we hear and sing it. When we hear the first bars of “Silent Night” we know, that “Mystic Chords of Memory” are being touched within us, Mystic Chords of Memory that bind us to the Prince of Peace, the Word of God, the Holy Eucharist and the mission of Mercy of the Church to the World.

  • Midnight Mass
    Sandro Botticelli Uffizi Gallery, Flormce THE MADO NA OF THE MAG IFICAT DOMINICAN A Vol. XXI DECEMBER, 1936 No. 4 MIDNIGHT MASS PAUL FRANCIS SMALL, O.P. "Welcome, all wonders in one night! Eternity shut in a span, Summer in winter, day in night, Heaven in earth, and God in man. Great Little One ! Whose all embracing birth Lifts earth to heaven, stoops heaven to earth."' OLY Mother the Church, mantled in midnight prayers and good works, is once again prepared this Christmas eve to [I] cloister in the crib of the tabernacle, the lovely form of God. Yes, it is the proud secret of every Catholic heart that holy Mother the Church, keeping green the exquisite and delicate memory of God, is again transforming the days of old, the sublime and holy mystery of God's Christmas eve, into the ever tangible and beautiful reality of a child in its mother's arms. Nations, festive pilgrims in quest of the holy grail, will again adore the loveliest of forms. A hard, cold, leaden people will soon catch the mischievous clear limpid eyes of Jesus, beaming with pure delight.
