St. Leonhard’s International English-Speaking
Roman Catholic Parish
at Holy Cross Church
Frankfurt am Main, Germany

Calendar for 2012

 


IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to a renovation project requiring the closure of the St. Leonhard's church building through 2013,
ALL MASSES IN THE FOLLOWING CALENDAR, and most after-Mass events, take place at


Heilig Kreuz Zentrum für christliche Meditation & Spiritualität/
Holy Cross Center for Christian Meditation & Spirituality
Kettelerallee 4
60385 Frankfurt (Bornheim)

 

except for the Mass prior to the Parish Picnic in June, other selected citywide Masses and some spiritual, cultural or social events throughout the year. Note that any alternative locations are underlined.

Most weekend Masses (Saturday evening vigil and Sunday morning liturgy) are followed immediately by a coffee social in the Holy Cross social hall (downstairs from the church); any exceptions are noted below.

 

Underlined times indicate a change from a day’s normally scheduled Mass time.
Underlined locations indicate venues away from the Holy Cross church or social hall.
Tentatively scheduled events are noted with the * sign.
