168th Anniversary of the Dedication of Notre Dame Cathedral (1853)

Mass to celebrate the anniversary of the dedication at Notre Dame on Sat., Sept. 4, 5:00 p.m. The importance of the cathedral church in the liturgical life of the diocese flows from the role of the Bishop as high priest of the Lord’s flock. Every parish community is related to the Bishop, therefore the anniversary of the cathedral church’s dedication as a place of worship is celebrated throughout the diocese (Ordo, 25b). This is a Solemnity in the cathedral and a Feast in other churches of the archdiocese.
