New Year and Mary, the Holy Mother of God

The first day of the year is also the Solemnity of Mary, the Holy Mother of God. Our Mass schedule is the following:

Tuesday, December 31:   4:15 p.m.
Wednesday, January 1:    7:30, 9, 10:30 a.m.

This holy day of obligation honors the most magnificent title and most important vocation of the Virgin from Nazareth - to be the Mother of God. The Greek word "theotokos" ("God bearer") has been traditionally used to profess what we believe about Mary AND that we believe that her son, Jesus, is truly God.
