Jubilee Closing Mass
September 10, 2022
Archbishop José H. Gomez celebrated the closing of the “Forward in Mission” Jubilee Year and the reopening of Mission San Gabriel on Saturday, September 10, 2022.
Homily by Archbishop Gomez
Truly, “salvation has come to this house,” as Our Lord says in the Gospel today! Within these walls, that is where the faith began in Southern California! And we walk now in the company of a great cloud of witnesses. Angels and saints, our ancestors and loved ones, in heaven and on earth. And my dear brothers and sisters, we are part of a movement that is so much greater and so much more beautiful than any of us could ever imagine: the great movement of God’s Holy Spirit through history.
