Overview
Open to all—everyone is welcome to participate in this beautiful tradition.

Simbang Gabi, which translates to "Night Mass," is a profound Filipino Advent tradition consisting of a novena of Masses celebrated at dawn over nine consecutive days, from December 16 to 24. This devotion honours the Blessed Virgin Mary and prepares our hearts for the birth of Jesus. While rooted in Filipino culture, the entire parish community is warmly invited to participate in this spiritual journey.

If you or your family would like to support this tradition by sponsoring one of the Masses or the community breakfast that often follows, please visit the sign-up sheet in the church foyer. We hope to see you there!
