Christian Unity / Outdoor Sound

Worship Night with Jesus Culture, Thursday, 6/16 @ 7pm

Jesus prayed that all those who believed in him would “be one, as you, Father, are in me and I in you…that the world may believe that you sent me.” (Jn 17:20-21) Division and separation among Christians is contrary to the will of Christ and a stumbling block to unbelievers. The Council Fathers at Vatican II sought a constructive engagement with non-Catholic Christians. While there have been some important steps towards Christian unity, their vision has been largely unrealized.

By God’s providence, OLMC is located next door to two other Christian communities, New Hope and Jesus Culture San Diego. I’ve recently gotten to know the pastor of Jesus Culture San Diego, Zack Curry, through a group of North County Inland pastors who meet monthly.

OLMC is hosting a joint worship event with Jesus Culture San Diego tomorrow at 7pm in our parish church. It is my hope that many of you will attend, and that our common praise of God and time together will help us grow in love and zeal for the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Outdoor Sound to be Discontinued

Our neighbors have recently expressed their frustration with the projection of sound by our outdoor speakers during weekend Masses. They say it takes away from their quiet enjoyment of their outdoor spaces. They have been very patient with us for the two years in which we have been projecting outdoor sounds. In consideration of their concerns, we will not longer be doing this. To participate in the Mass will mean that you will have to be inside the church when the Mass is celebrated.
