SPECIAL UPDATE: PATRONAL FEAST

Beloved in Christ,

Good afternoon.

Here is your invitation to our Patronal Feast celebration on Sunday, September 7.

Service will begin at 11 am with the rite for the Solemn Reception of a Bishop, followed by a procession around our neighborhood accompanied by a quartet of musicians playing trumpets and trombones. 

Bishop Mary Douglas Glasspool, Bishop Suffragan, Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles,  will be the Celebrant and Preacher at Mass following the procession. Mass will be bi-lingual - all printed in a very user-friendly worship bulletin.

Several members of the parish - in both Spanish and English communities - will receive the Sacrament of Confirmation or be received into The Episcopal Church and the worldwide Anglican Communion.

Following Mass, join us at our festive reception in St. Joseph Hall. This is a potluck event, so bring some food to share.

I am looking forward to this special event in our parish's life and hope you can join us. Bring your family and friends.

Fr. Vincent
