Immigration Mass scheduled July 22 at Cathedral

Written by Admin Friday, 20 July 2012 14:13

Archbishop José Gomez will preside at a July 22 Mass in recognition of all those who are now or who in previous generations have been immigrants to the United States.

The 3:30 p.m. Mass at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels “will celebrate the fact that we are citizens of God, children of the same Father,” said Auxiliary Bishop Alexander Salazar, director of the archdiocesan Office of Justice and Peace which is coordinating preparations for the event.

A group of pastors from inner-city parishes has held several meetings to work on an effort to support immigrants hailing from all around the world. It is a practical response to a call from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops stated in the document “Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship: A Call to Political Responsibility.”

All parishioners are invited to attend the July 22 Mass, which will feature the Dolores Mission Parish choir and testimonies of undocumented from different countries.

For more information, call the archdiocesan Office of Justice and Peace, (213) 637-7560.
