In the Traditional Latin Roman Rite, Christmas is celebrated with profound reverence and joy, honoring the birth of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world. The celebration begins with Midnight Mass, a solemn liturgy filled with timeless Latin hymns, incense, and candlelight, evoking the mystery and awe of the Nativity. The faithful gather to worship and reflect on the humble birth of Christ in Bethlehem, recognizing His divine incarnation as the Light of the World. Through the rich traditions of the Latin rite, including the use of Gregorian chant and the proclamation of the Gospel in Latin, the Church embraces the beauty and wonder of this sacred event, inviting all to experience the profound peace and joy of Christ's coming into the world.
