  • Yes
    Help of Christians, guard our land from assault or inward stain,
    Let it be what God has planned, His new Eden where You reign.

  • No.  Sunday has been moved to Monday.   :laugh1:  

    Actually, Yes.  Anytime a Holyday falls on a Sunday, one goes to Mass once to fulfill all obligations.  What doesn't truly fulfill any obligation is attending Mass the day before.  The day always begins at Midnight according to the local secular law.

  • Yes, It is because Christmas Day this year falls on Sunday.
