Public Masses SuspendedOut of concern for the bodily well being of all of the Cathedral's parishioners and guests, Fr. Brandon and the Cathedral staff have decided it would be prudent to suspend public Masses at the Cathedral of Christ the Light until further notice. This decision was made in accordance to Alameda County's restrictions for large gatherings.
Please see the message from our rector, Fr. Brandon, as he describes the situation, offers spiritual insight for moving forward, and a small preview of things to come.
Please understand this situation is fluid, and we are carefully watching for the data to present when public Masses will be safe for all parishioners and guests again.
The Cathedral of Christ the Light will still be open for private prayer:
6:30am to 8:00pm on M through Sat
6:30am to 7:00pm on Sun

How to Prepare for Mass WellLive streaming the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is not quite full and active participation in the Mass, but here's how we may get the most out the experience:
- Set up a Prayerful space with a crucifix, candle, and some flowers/plants
- Dress up as you would for attending a Sunday Mass
- Take 10 to 15 minutes of personal reflection to prepare your heart for the live streamed Mass
- Think of a prayer intention you intend to offer during Mass
- Do an examination of Conscience
- or read the Mass readings at https://bible.usccb.org
- Participate in the physical gestures and spoken responses
- Pray an Act of Spiritual Communion

Homily Help Happy Hour (H4) Seminar Series
The Cathedral of Christ the Light is happy to announce our Homily Help Happy Hour (H4) seminar series! Join Fr. Brandon for small group discussions on the readings and prayers of the Mass as he prepares his Sunday homilies. We want this to be a weekly event via Zoom, beginning on May 19, 2020. Once we reopen the Cathedral, we hope to continue these H4 sessions in person with Fr. Brandon, either at the Cathedral or at a local bar or restaurant!
Sign up for the next session by CLICKING HERE. In order to facilitate more focused discussions, Fr. Brandon will limit participation to 15-20 people, who will receive a confirmation email from him. While we cannot accommodate larger groups, you may still sign up for future sessions as H4 continues into the future!
