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.
