Finding a Mass or Passion Service During Holy Week in the Maryland Area: How to Proceed

Okay, if you have landed here, you are in the right place, but you will have to do this logically... First, you need to find a Parish. Then, you need to call the Rectory and find out when Masses or Services are held; many have recordings at this time of year. This is not listed in any master database...sorry, I wish I could say otherwise.

In the Maryland, DC, Arlington area:

First, if you are looking for the Extraordinary Form Mass, the Usus Antiquior, the Tridentine, a Latin Mass or the Gregorian Rite, those Holy Week listings are here (and will be updated all week).

If you are simply looking for a "Novus Ordo" or "regular" Sunday Mass (or Passion Service), proceed as follows:

Near Baltimore and not near D.C. or its adjacent Maryland suburbs, find a Parish here.

In Maryland but on the Eastern Shore near Salisbury or Ocean City, go here.

In D.C. or along the Western shore of Maryland along the Chesapeake Bay, find a Parish here.

South of D.C. and across the Potomac River but north of Richmond, find a Parish here.

Anywhere else in the U.S., use this search form from MassTimes.org.

What will NOT work:

Using Google to search for "St. Axelbert's Mass Times" (there are lots of St. Axelbert's!)
Googling Masses, Baltimore
Googling Catholic Church, wherever...

Please do stay and give this a try. We'd love to see you at Mass on Palm Sunday or at the 3 PM Passion Service on Good Friday!
