After years of anticipation and $77 million in renovations, the Catholics in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange, LA, will get to test drive Schuller’s telegenic cathedral.  

(In a word 'WOW' !!!!!)

The Roman Catholic Diocese is a vibrant and diverse faith community in Southern California home to 62 parishes, 41 schools and 1.3 million Catholics.

The faithful have been invited to celebrate a  Solemn Mass of Dedication at the Garden Grove church on Wednesday 17th July 2019. 

'As you celebrate the dedication of Christ Cathedral, His Holiness Pope Francis sends warm greetings to you, your Auxiliary Bishops Timothy Freyer and Thomas Thanh Thai Nguyen, Bishop Emeritus Tod Brown, and all the priests, religious and lay faithful of the Diocese of Orange in California, as well as to all those gathered for this joyful event ...' Pope Francis
