DRESS CODE
Out of respect for the Blessed Sacrament, and in keeping with Christian modesty, please observe the following standards of dr ess:
Women and girls—A suitable hat or veil should be used, that covers at least the crown of the head (I Cor. 11:5, 6, 10). No slacks, no sleeveless, revealing, or low-cut clothing (the Marylike Crusade’s standard is that a dress be not cut more than two fingers’ width below pit of throat). Dresses & skirts
should cover knees when you are standing or sitting, and not have long slits in them. Strapless or spaghetti-strap clothing is always sinfully immodest
and should never be worn. Please avoid “straight skirts” as well, since they are usually form-fitting and tight.
Men and boys—Suit coat and tie, dress slacks, or other formal attire. Jeans, shorts, “flip-flops,” and other casual attire are inappropriate for church! Be
sure to also avoid clothing with logos and/or large lettering, as these can be quite distracting.
We welcome all our guests and visitors, and encourage you to read the blue pamphlet “Welcome to the Traditional Latin Mass” (available in the vestibule). It explains why we must completely avoid the modern Mass and liturgies introduced since Vatican II.

HISTORICAL TRIVIA ABOUT MT. ST. MICHAEL
The official move-in date for the Jesuits to Mt. St. Michael was feast of the Epiphany,
January 6, 1916. The building of the edifice was essentially accomplished by the end of
1915, hence our Centennial celebration in 2015!

Closing Hymn after Christmas Masses
Angels We Have Heard On High
1) Angels we have heard on high,
Sweetly singing o’er the plain
And the mountains in reply
Echo back their joyous strain:
REFRAIN:
Gloria in excelsis Deo!
Gloria in excelsis Deo!
2) Shepherds why this jubilee?
Why your gladsome strain prolong?
Say, what may the tidings be
Which inspire your heav’nly song?
3) Come to Bethlehem, and see
Him Whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King.
