do you attend mass? Either Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?

We do. On Christmas Eve.
ETA: We travel on Christmas Day to my ILs house--- otherwise we'd probably go then.

Yes, we do.... We went Christmas Eve because the actual Day is just too hectic and they don't want to leave their toys!

I want to add that I also try and take my son every week - but we don't always get there, but I try.

Re: Just wondering...if you celebrate Christmas...

yes, i go to Mass on Christmas. In fact, I go on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I LOVE the Christmas Masses, particularly the Midnight Mass. Also, I am usually singing a Mass or two in my choir or cantoring, so two at Christmas is a minimum for me.

But then again, I also go every week and for Holy Days, so Christmas is a no-brainer for me, DH and my family.

We are interfaith and celebrate Christmas.

We attend a Unitarian Universalist Fellowship and attend Christmas services there.

It's only offered 5 pm Christmas Eve, there is no service Christmas day.

It's not a mass. There is a service blended with a Christmas pageant for the children.

Re: Just wondering...if you celebrate Christmas...

Before DS we did midnight mass. This year that was impossible with a 7 month old, so we did 12:30 mass on Christmas day before heading to my parents. We'll probably do that until the kids are old enough to make it till midnight.

We go to midnight mass on Christmas Eve. We don't go on Christmas Day as the Eve mass is a Vigil.

Re: Just wondering...if you celebrate Christmas...

Christmas Eve candlelight mass at DH's church with his mother's side of the family (about 10-15 of us)
It has become a tradition. We eat dinner first then go to church then come home and open family gifts.
