Annual Pride Mass Was Cancelled


We are so sorry that we needed to postpone our Pride Mass due to the unknown ramifications that Hurricane Hilary could bring. The Steering Committee will be meeting on September 12th and the event will be reschedule. Please see our Facebook page for the most up to date information or the October newsletter.


David Kennedy’s Inurnment


On Thursday, August 24th several members from Comunidad, St. Matthew’s Parish and other LA Archdiocese Ministries bid a final farewell to David Kennedy, as his remains were laid to rest at All Souls Cemetery in Long Beach. Fr. Chris Ponnet provided a very moving graveside service. Rest in Peace our dear friend.

We’ve got other upcoming events, too!
