150th Anniversary Celebration
On the Sunday after the Ascension in 1873, a few people gathered to celebrate Holy Eucharist together. On Sunday, May 21, 2023, the Sunday after the Feast of the Ascension, we will cap off our year-long celebration of this sesquicentennial anniversary. The Rt. Rev. José McLoughlin will be with us.
