* NOTE: At the 9:00 and 11:15 Masses, due to low attendance because of snow, the meditation hymn was dropped, and the Recessional hymn was "As with gladness..."

Because Epiphany was celebrated on a date after January 6, the Baptism of the Lord was celebrated on Monday, January 7, concluding the Christmas Season.  The First Week of the Year (aka, "Ordinary Time") begins on Tuesday, January 8.
