Christmas at Westminster Cathedral and around the Diocese


Christmas is expected to be a busy time at churches around the Diocese of Westminster, with numbers expected to increase as congregations welcome family and visitors returning to join in the celebrations in London and Hertfordshire.

Cardinal Nichols will be the principal celebrant at Midnight Mass at Westminster Cathedral. Masses will also be celebrated at over 200 parishes throughout the
diocese, and will be offered in different languages, reflecting the cultural and ethnic diversity of Catholics in London and Hertfordshire.

Christmas remains a popular time for many Catholics to visit Westminster Cathedral. Full details of all Cathedral Masses during Christmastide can be found at: www.westminstercathedral.org.uk.

Mass times, addresses, full contact details and links to parish websites for all parishes around the diocese can be found at: http://rcdow.org.uk/diocese/.
