Bishop from tsunami-disaster areas in town
A special mass will be given at Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church Wednesday morning, featuring Bishop Alex Dias of one of the most devastated regions of last year’s tsunami, which killed more than 176,000 people in 10 countries, most in Indonesia. Dias is from Port Blair, India.
The church and its school held a fundraiser that collected thousands of dollars for the region with the community’s help.
The mass is 8:45 a.m., with a reception at 9:30 a.m., at the church and its education building, which is located at 2205 W. Market St. (corner of Chapman and Market). The public is invited.
