Pasterka

Pasterka

Pasterka is a midnight mass celebrated between 24 and 25 December in Poland. A close translation of the name would be "Shepherds' Mass". This is a reference to the biblical shepherds, who were visited by an angel and told of the birth of Christ. During the Pasterka, the Poles sing tranditional Christmas hymns ("kolędy").
