Join Bishop Nguyen and brothers and sisters throughout the Diocese on Wednesday of Holy Week 6 p.m. in the Garden of Gethsemane at Christ Cathedral (next to Our Lady of La Vang Shrine) for a Prayer Vigil in Solidarity with the Poor and Vulnerable. Let us unite our hearts in response to the call of the California Catholic Conference of Bishops to remember the poor and vulnerable as we prepare to celebrate the Paschal Triduum.
“This Lent, as we pray, fast, and give alms to prepare for the Easter celebration of the Paschal mystery, we are reminded that the Gospel is good news for the poor and vulnerable. With recent national administrative actions that have left uncertainty about the care and futures of so many of our brothers and sisters in Christ, we call upon California Catholics to amplify and stand in solidarity with these urgent opportunities for prayer, education, and advocacy alongside our national partners at the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Catholic Charities USA, and Catholic Relief Services to help bring relief to those who are suffering.”
“Amen, I say to you, what you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for me.” -Jesus, Matthew 25:45
