Looking for a parish for Midnight Mass and never been in SA. Anyone know of a good option that close to North side of town?

St Matthew
10703 Wurzbach Rd. Definitely has a midnight mass.
Our home parish.

Might check St Mark the Evangelist too.

How is the crowd? Will there be plenty of seats?

Both are large churches, would assume availability. But not much experience on the crowds at midnight.

We're going to 4pm Christmas Eve, kids are in the pageant. The 4 and 6pm at St Matthew are very crowded, but they also have overflow masses in the Ballroom.

I used to be an altar boy at St. Francis. My parents still attend weekly,

I'll have to ask them about the circle thing.

You can throw Holy Trinity in there too, it's gotten very big.

Went to St Matthews, my son plays trumpet and he loved the brass players that performed the Christmas music.

Did Fr Eric Ritter celebrate the midnight Mass when you visited? Best Priest I have been around since my days at St Mary's despite the fact that he is a Longhorn. We still travel to attend Mass with him at least once a month.

Yes he led the Mass. He seemed very warm and funny. Great personality. We are thinking of joining that parish rather than St Padre de Pio which is closest to our home.
