St. Peter Catholic Diocese for Assyrians &
Chaldeans
It
has been a year since we celebrated the unity between the Assyrian
Catholic Apostolic Diocese (ACAD) with our diocese of St. Peter
Catholic Diocese of Assyrians & Chaldeans in San Diego. The faithful
supporters of His Excellency Mar Bawai Soro began their journey for
more than four years ago, which it finally ended within our diocese.
With the encouragement of His Excellency Mar Sarhad Yawsip Jammo,
who has been a strong advocate for both ecclesiastical unity among
our sister churches and also the unity among Assyrians and Chaldean
on the nationalistic front, this camp of Assyrians of the Church of
the East finally joined their brethren in the Chaldean Catholic
Church in April of 2008.
St. Paul
Assyrian-Chaldean Catholic Church of the East has been working
toward this unity and this year on June 28, we’re celebrating the
first anniversary of this ecclesiastical unity with the presence of
both bishops, His Excellencies Mar Sarhad Yawsip Jammo and Mar Bawai
Soro.
On Sunday,
the celebration of holy mass, ordination of deacons, and the First
Communion at St. Paul church, will be followed by the receiving of
certificates for the first communion and also honoring the graduates
(high school and higher education degree) in the Garden Party at
Rancho Cordillera del Norte, located at 9015 Wilbur Ave., Northridge
(south of Nordhoff Ave., between Reseda & Tampa). The party starts
from 2:00PM and continuing till 10:00PM, with plenty of food of both
Assyrian & Chaldean cuisines, games for children, music, and lots of
fun!
We’re also taking advantage of this opportunity to introduce
the businesses and the business owners to our parishioners. If you
have a business that you would like to advertise about it, bring
your flyers and business cards with yourself to this event. For more
information please contact church at (818) 765-3665.
