Christ Cathedral To Build New Chapel And Crypts
The Diocese of Orange and Christ Cathedral will soon be breaking ground on the St. Callistus Chapel and Crypts, a new worship space underneath Christ Cathedral that will serve generations of parishioners throughout Orange County.

Host Rick Howick interviews guests on a variety of topics. On today’s show, Rick welcomes Deacon Bernie Ocampo and a group of individuals that accompanied him on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land that ended abruptly on October 7 in response to the recent events in Israel. On this episode, the discussion centers around their experience and what it was like to be in the area during this time.
