Archbishop José H. Gomez has invited all Los Angeles Catholics to join him for a special celebration of the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus on Friday, June 16.
The Archbishop will celebrate the 12:10 Mass at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels to mark the beginning of a day of prayer in light of the decision by the Los Angeles Dodgers to honor a group that mocks Catholic religious sisters and stages lewd and profane performances aimed at ridiculing Jesus and the Catholic Mass, among other provocations.
“Please join me! And please share this invitation with your friends and loved ones and neighbors,” Archbishop Gomez said in a message posted on his social media channels. “We will be praying in a special way for our city and our country, for an end to prejudice, and for renewed respect for the religious beliefs of all Angelenos and all Americans.”
