We invite you to join us for a special time of prayer as we kick off our celebration of the 50th Anniversary of our Diocese of Orange. We will begin 48 Hours of Adoration with a procession of the Blessed Sacrament to the Parish Hall on Friday, June 5, after the 6:30 PM Vietnamese Mass. We will then conclude the Adoration on Sunday evening, June 7, at 5:15 PM, at which time we will process the Blessed Sacrament back from the Parish Hall to the Church for the reposition of the Blessed Sacrament. We encourage everyone to come and spend some time with Jesus in silent prayer as a group or individually during these 48 hours of Adoration.
- Mark your calendars! Per a directive from Bishop Vann and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, parishes in the USA are requested to offer a special Mass to consecrate the 250th Anniversary of the Birth of our Nation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus (cf Shepherd’s Update of April 29, 2026). This special Mass will be on Thursday evening, June 11, at 5:00 pm, preceded by Adoration immediately following the 8:30 am Mass until 4:30 pm.
