The choir sings Mozart’s Missa brevis in F; and there are popular traditional carols for all to sing. The Christmas Crib is dedicated at the end of the service, which concludes with the evergreen Silent night.
  • Family Christmas Mass, Thursday 25 December at 10.30am: An informal service on Christmas morning for children and young families. The Christmas story with popular Christmas music.
