On the 8th Day of the Octave of Christmas and at the beginning of the new civil year, the Church celebrates Mary as the Mother of God. One of the oldest titles for Our Lady, the Greek title Θεοτόκος (Theotokos), meaning "Bearer of God" was adopted by the First Council of Ephesus (431) as an assertion of the divinity of Christ.
This will be the only Mass celebrated on January 1 and there are no scheduled confessions this day.

St. John’s is hosting a very unusual discussion after Masses this Sunday, Nov. 16, featuring two mothers of priests and their sons.
Kristin Gilger’s son, Father Paddy, was interim pastor at St. John’s a few years ago, and his good friend, Jeff Sullivan, is associate director of campus ministry at Creighton.
Their mothers had very different reactions to their sons’ decisions to become Jesuit priests.
Kristin is the author of a soon-to-be-released book, “My Son, The Priest: A Mother’s Crisis of Faith,” that has been described as “an exploration of faith, and doubt, and family that expertly balances tender recollection with sharp insight.” The book will be available for sale, and we’ll supply the coffee.
Please join us after the 8 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. Masses on Sunday, Nov. 16 in Lower St. John's for what promises to be a one-of-a-kind discussion!
