CHRISTMAS MUSIC Traditional Christmas hymns will be sung at Christmas Eve and Christmas Day Masses (except for the 7:30 am Mass.) At the 6pm Christmas Eve Mass and the 10:30 am Christmas Day Mass we will welcome a guest instrumentalist and the Little Flower vocal quartet to offer together a prelude of Christmas hymns and anthems, which will begin 20 minutes prior to the start of Mass. |

IMPORTANT REVISED GUIDELINES FOR MASS • Masks are required for all participants at indoor Masses and parish events by government edict in Montgomery County. It is ADW policy that masks are required for students, staff, and visitors in school buildings.
• The Sign of Peace may be offered by using a gesture, such as a bow or wave, but shaking hands should be avoided.
• At Holy Communion, the Archdiocese of Washington continues to discourage receiving the Host on the tongue, so those who normally do so, in consideration of the ministers and others, are respectfully asked to receive in the hand.
