FEAST DAY OF ST. JUDE
On Sunday, October 26, we hosted communities from the state of Michoacan in celebrating the Feast Day of St. Jude, San Judas Tadeo. In a colorful, joyful event that drew over 400 visitors and guests, the communities shared traditional dances that included "Los Viejitos" (picured), "Los Moros," "Los Soldaditos," as well as offerings, blessings and music - each of these woven into the readings, prayer and praise of the Festive Eucharist.
