AUDITORIUM AND NESTCAFE

You have arrived at the Auditorium, where vesting is taking place. After the Mass, please return here to remove your vestments. Msgr. Patrick Dubois and his team will be in the NestCafe, located within this building, for the distribution of the Holy Oils for your parish.

PROCESSION TO THE CHURCH

The formation of the procession will begin in the NestCafe. Fr. David Portorreal and Gustavo Correa will lead the procession to the church.

SEATING AND LITURGY

Priests will be seated in the south transept on the side of Mary’s statue, as indicated on the diagram. Jubilarians will be seated in the first three reserved rows. Due to limited space in the sanctuary, only the jubilarians will come up to the altar during the Eucharistic Prayer. Priests who are unable to climb the steps are kindly asked to be seated in the first reserved pews closest to Mary’s statue. Holy Communion will be brought to you.
Deacons and members of the Knights of Columbus, the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre, and the Knights of Malta are asked to follow the seating indicated on the diagram and the direction of ushers.
For Holy Communion, priests are asked to approach the altar. After receiving, please exit on the side of St. Joseph near the musicians, pass behind the altar, and return to your seats as indicated. Ushers will assist you. Deacons will remain in their designated seating, and Holy Communion under both species will be brought to them.
