OC CATHOLIC RADIO: MEDIA DAY AT OUR LADY OF LA VANG SHRINE

Welcome to another episode of Orange County Catholic Radio, featuring host Rick Howick.

On this episode, we’re going to leave our broadcast facility in the Tower of Hope and take our mobile studio outdoors. Our host Rick Howick and studio engineer Jim Governale recently joined in the outdoor festivities at Christ Cathedral for media day – which took place a couple of days before the ‘solemn blessing’ of the Our Lady of La Vang shrine. You are sure to gain great insights from this lively series of interviews with Bishops, priests, and lay leaders!

OUR LADY OF LAVANG SHRINE

Some 3,000 faithful gathered on the campus of Christ Cathedral on Saturday, Oct. 21, to be part of the blessing of the site of the future Our Lady of LaVang Shrine. 

The large outdoor Mass was attended by the many Vietnamese Catholics who look forward to the construction of the shrine that honors the Blessed Mother and commemorates her appearance, care and protection of those who fled their homeland after the fall of Saigon in 1975.
