Archbishop Smith brings us Christmas 2021 Blessings and helps us prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ through listening to and hearing the Word of God.

In his Christmas message, His Grace reflects on the words from St. John’s Gospel – the Word was made flesh. Using the metaphor of videoconferencing, the Archbishop asks us to consider how we can mute all of the things that distract us from His Word.

Additionally, he shares, “Let’s unmute so that we don’t miss the opportunities to build one another up through the speech that we share with one another."

If you're looking for Christmas Mass times, please check with your local parish or search the Archdiocese website. You'll notice that it looks very different. It's part of the Archdiocese of Edmonton's ongoing efforts to make information easier to access.
