‘Midnight’ Mass
10pm
St. Mary’s, Summerside
No, it’s not quite at midnight, but if you are looking for something a bit quieter and more traditional, join us at 10pm at St. Mary’s Church in Summerside for our candlelit service of Holy Communion. The service will be sung and the church in darkness save for our candlelight until we hear of the birth of Jesus, the light that has come into the world.
