Midnight Mass 2013...

2013-12-25 01.28.32Just for once I'm organised with my photos - well, sort of. I have put them into a Flickr set, but haven't labelled them, or weeded any out (that may change if I get a bit of spare time.)

In the meantime, do go and have a look. I don't know of anywhere else in England & Wales that had a vetus ordo Solemn High Mass for midnight on Christmas Eve...

Fr. Finigan reported that he very nearly had his first Christmas without any phone calls to ask what time Midnight Mass was. Then, at the last minute, he got two enquiries... Better luck next year!

Who were the other two priests that came? I'm very sorry I couldn't attend.

BTW, VERY nice spiffy surplices for the boys. Not too lacy, but nice trims at the bottom. Are they new?

Beautiful. One day I shall be able to serve a Solemn Mass for Mass during the Night...
Our PP said he would hang up the phone if they asked for the time of midnight Mass.
I hope you have a happy, holy Christmas Mac!

Your midnight mass is actually at midnight? Of the two in my town, they were both at 10 pm! So I can understand the confusion of the callers :)
