Today we have not one, but 4 Christmas Mass readings! I will read each of them separately so you can choose which one you plan to attend, and listen to that one, or, feel free to listen to one of the others, or even all of them if you so choose! If you’ve been following along during Advent, you will remember that the reflections for the last few weeks have been longer than usual. Take heart, because these are a bit shorter, but not any less interesting or meaty!
Note that Scripture readings are from the Lectionary for Mass for Use in the Dioceses of the United States of America, second typical edition, Copyright Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, Inc., used with permission. Commentary copyright Peter Kreeft, published by Word on Fire, used with permission.
This particular reflection is for the Christmas Mass at Night. In the old days, I think we used to call this one the Midnght Mass. Sometimes that is when it is said, but I know some parishes it is at 10 or 11 PM.
