Photo gallery - Diocesan Multicultural Mass on July 1st

The Archdiocese of Saint-Boniface was in full celebration on July 1 at the Diocesan Multicultural Mass held at the Cathedral of Saint-Boniface. The whole building was packed for this special Eucharistic celebration, which showcased the cultural diversity of our archdiocese, not to mention Christian hope. In his homily, Archbishop LeGatt emphasised the importance of peace - in our families, our communities, our country and the world.
To underline the beauty of this hope, the choir sang in Tagalog, Vietnamese, Nigerian, Spanish and our two official languages. The mass was followed by musical performances and a selection of delicious dishes representing the many cultures of our parishes. What a wonderful way to celebrate Canada Day!
