OneLife LA changes venue, cancels walk due to fires
The Archdiocese of Los Angeles has changed the venue and canceled the walk portion of OneLife LA as a result of the devastating Los Angeles fires and the continuing dangers of poor air quality.
A press release from the Archdiocese states that the Jan. 18 event will now take place at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels. It will begin with local organizations offering service opportunities at 1 p.m. There will be speakers and performers at 2 p.m., and the event will end with Archbishop José H. Gomez celebrating the Requiem Mass for the Unborn at 5 p.m.
“It is our hope to build upon the spirit of OneLife LA as a movement of love and mercy in our city especially during these times that have been devastating for so many families in our communities,” said Michael P. Donaldson, the senior director of the Archdiocese’s Office of Life, Justice & Peace.
