On Saturday, January 18, 2014 at 6PM, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles will be celebrating its 10th Annual Shantigarh Requiem for the Unborn at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels. It will be live-streamed for those unable to attend in person at this link: http://p23.worshipstream.com/13/CathedralEvents
“Coming together as an Archdiocesan family in the celebration of life is an important moment in the life of our Local Church, and it is my hope that we fill our Cathedral to overflowing. This is not simply a gathering for activists, but rather, an opportunity for all to proclaim aloud this most basic tenet of our faith.
This Liturgy, with its original score and extraordinary Ceremony of Light is the Church at its most sincere and most convincing when it comes to the issue of the right of the unborn to breathe that first breath. I urge you to be present with us this evening.” -Most Rev. Jose H. Gomez, Archbishop of Los Angeles
