Christmas Eve at Saint Peter's Basilica 1997 - Partial Midnight Mass Broadcast

I found this on an old VHS tape - my Mom taped it when it originally aired. Only the first 31 minutes of the broadcast was on the tape; I don't have the rest of the Mass.
Aired on WVTM (NBC 13) in Birmingham, AL in December 1997. #90s #tv #christmas

Thank-you very much for posting this video. I am the girl in the green dress at approx. 27 minutes 30 seconds, doing the second reading.
It was lovely to see this again after all this time. So many memories. Thanks again.

Cradinal john p. Foley rest in peace

He always makes it sound so beautiful yet understandable. And he always says it's the largest church in the world, and explains the HF's ritual garments. This could make you proud to be catholic and if you weren't, it might even make you want to be.
