ts are celebrated for ACTIVE and SUPPORTING members of our mission community. We are Catholic Christians of the Orthodox Faith, tracing our roots to the old Church of Antioch, where "the disciples were first called 'Christians'” (Acts 11:26). We pray in the Byzantine Rite and follow Apostolic traditions dating from the beginning of Christianity. Our community was established in San Diego, CA in 1990 and is part of the Eparchy of Newton, MA. Sunday Divine Liturgy is celebrated at 11:15am at 2235 Galahad Rd (at Holy Angels Byzantine Church).

New Venue for the procession
********************
World Day of Migrants and Refugees: All Are Sacred
Bishop Michael Pham warmly invites Catholic, non-denominational, interreligious leaders, and communities to come together for an Interreligious Procession honoring the sacred dignity of every human person—“no matter where they are born, or where they now live.”

Let us walk together in prayer, solidarity, and hope, recognizing that every person is sacred and every human life is worthy of dignity, welcome, and love.

September 27 at 2:00 PM
Location: Balboa Park (6th Ave and Laurel St.)

Join us as we stand together as one human family and bear witness to God’s call to welcome the stranger, accompany those who migrate, and honor the dignity of all.

All are welcome!

“We cannot remain as unengaged spectators; rather, we must listen with our hearts, allow ourselves to be challenged, and become involved,” the pope said during his Sept. 2 general audience in St. Peter’s Square.

The pope began a new series of reflections on the Second Vatican Council’s pastoral constitution “Gaudium et Spes,” which examines the relationship between the Church and the modern world.

Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ,

Christ is with us!

Fr James Bankston has asked me to remind everyone at St Jacob's to please avoid excessive speeding while driving in Holy Angels' parking lot.

Please be aware of youth walking and running in the parking lot and pass the word to any guests, visitors, etc., who you know will be driving in the parking lot, as well.

Many thanks and blessings for your support.

In Christ,
Fr Shaun
