Please join us for our Annual Christmas Day Mass
|
The photo is of the first Christmas Day Mass, held in 1987 and demonstrated that the community was determined to keep the City from demolishing Sacred Heart Church. The mass was held outside because the City would not allow anyone inside and was moving to tear the church down.
Join us on Christmas Day at Historic Sacred Heart Church for a time-honored tradition held annually since 1987, honoring and remembering the former members of the Golden Gate community and the other barrios of Sacred Heart Parish. During the Mass, the names of community members who passed away in the last year will be read in remembrance, followed by a tribute from American Legion Post 41, who will read the names of our veteranos who have also passed. All are welcome to gather in prayer, memory, and gratitude for a community whose legacy endures.
