Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

This Christmas, we warmly invite you to join the St. Gaspar Family of Parishes for joyful and reverent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day Masses as we celebrate the Nativity of the Lord.

As we gather to honor the birth of our Savior, we welcome you to experience the beauty of Catholic Christmas worship, uplifting music, and prayerful community at our parish churches across Dayton. Whether you are returning home for the holidays, visiting from out of town, or seeking a spiritual home, you are welcome here.
