Best Answer

The Catholic Mass is a liturgical Mass whose roots are deeply in early Christianity and in The Bible. Nearly everything said in a Mass is from the Bible, and many of the images and actions that take place can be found in the book of Revelations, in the description of the heavenly Jerusalem. Catholic Mass also places heavy emphasis on the Eucharist (it's not technically a Mass if there is no Liturgy of the Eucharist). Catholics believe Mass is the same sacrifice Jesus offered (not a recreation of it or a repetition but the exact same sacrifice), offered in an unbloody manner.

Do Mormons have a midnight Mass?

"Mass" is the name of a Catholic worship service. It is tradition for many Catholic churches to hold a midnight Mass on Christmas Eve. Mormons are not Catholic, so they do not have "Mass". The comparable Mormon worship service is called "Sacrament Meeting." Mormons do not hold any meetings or worship services at midnight. Sacrament Meetings are generally held on Sundays during daytime hours (there are special exceptions in Muslim nations). Mormons also do not have Sacrament Meetings on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day unless it happens to also be a Sunday, although many Mormon congregations hold a special Christmas service on a Sunday or Saturday in December. You can check out the "related links" below to compare a Catholic Mass with a Mormon Sacrament Meeting.
