rubyfino Posted May 13, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Hi! We're booked for the 12/24 Paradise 3 day and I'm wondering if there's a Catholic Midnight Mass for Christmas Eve? And if so, where is it usually held? Thanks in advance :) Lisa "I'm going where the weather suits my clothes..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Me being Catholic and he being Baptist...) I said I'd like to go to midnight mass and he said sure...what time is it?? :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger belle Posted May 13, 2010 #3 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I've never heard of any type of religious service being held on a Carnival ship so I would be surprised indeed if there was a Midnight Christmas service of any religious denomination Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dclark Posted May 13, 2010 #4 Share Posted May 13, 2010 It all depends... they might and they might not. We were on a ship thgat had midnight mass. CCL policy is that they will provide the room and put it in the caper if requested. They won't pay for a priest to cruise with them, but if there is a priest that happens to be on board, he can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron57nie Posted May 13, 2010 #5 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I would highly doubt it, in my 10 Carnival there has yet to be a Christian service of any kind and 2 of those cruises were over Easter. Costa, Holland America, and RCCL regularly have Catholic services in my experience. The only way that may be different would be if you had a preist in your party, or if one was onboard vacationing and offered his services free to the line.

rubyfino Posted May 13, 2010 Author #6 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Ah well, thanks guys. Felt kinda weird about being on a cruise ship at Christmas for the first time, and thought I'd hedge my bets by attending Mass. "See, God? I'm behaving!" :D I guess I'll be dodging lightning strikes while trying not to spill my drink of the day...

illinoismomof4 Posted May 13, 2010 #7 Share Posted May 13, 2010 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Are there religious services on board? When available, a clergyman will be on board for Christmas, Easter, Passover, Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur; this is subject to availability of booking clergymen during their most holy days.

Thank you. I've been known to hit the search button a time or two,;) and I did see that response, but it seemed so vague that I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask those who'd know...
