Bishop Rojas participates in Thanksgiving Day of the Poor event

On Thanksgiving Day, Bishop Alberto Rojas reflected on the importance of gratitude when he celebrated Mass at St. Bernardine Church in San Bernardino. “It’s a beautiful feeling, knowing the whole country is stopping to come together as families and have a meal and thank God for their blessings,” Bishop Rojas expressed during his homily. In addition to celebrating Thanksgiving Mass, Bishop Rojas lent a hand during the Diocesan “Day of the Poor” event held at the parish. This event, coordinated by the Office of Community Services & Outreach, provided haircuts, bags with personal care/sanitary items, clean clothes and shoes, blankets and towels to those in need. Bishop Rojas then shared a Thanksgiving meal with brothers and sisters in need, and parishioners.
