Weekly Update
Hello everyone!
Please continue gossiping about our website.
If you would like help me make videos to promote our Deaf Community please send me an email and we’ll schedule a day and time to make it happen. We would all like to see how Jesus Christ is transforming your life for the better.
Mass and Confession Calendar
We currently offer three places for you to fulfill your Sunday mass obligation. On Saturday Christ Our Savior parish offers a 5pm English mass with an ASL interpreter. On Sundays, Christ Cathedral and Saint Mary’s in Fullerton are another two options. Livestreamed from Christ Cathedral is a 9:45 am English and 11:30am Spanish interpreted mass. If you prefer an in-person mass, St. Mary’s in Fullerton at 2:30 has an ASL/ English mass.
Eventually, when the Covid-19 lockdown procedures and cautions are lifted within the Diocese and or when we can return to indoor services. Christ Our Savior parish will most likely again offer their 7pm Saturday Spanish mass with an ASL interpreter, AND the mass at St. Mary’s in Fullerton will move to 10am on Sunday.
Let’s continue our prayer effort that once we are allowed to begin hosting indoor meetings i.e. masses and groups. We can start up faith formation classes in the morning on Sundays at St. Mary’s in Fullerton.
With regard to participating as a volunteer religious teacher we will most likely have to review your diocesan files to ensure you are up to date.
In the meantime, I will be posting on OCCatholicDeaf.org some zoom socials and meeting times. Stay tuned for the dates to be posted, <1 week time.
I just sent another request for a facebook page/account to be created so that we can start livestreaming our ASL/English masses at St. Mary’s. Let’s pray that it gets setup so that more and more can join us in person and or online.

Member Forum
(Zoom Platform)
Since we will not be able to meet in-person for this Pastoral Week, this will be an opportunity for NCOD members to “see” each other virtually and share with each other the experiences of working in Deaf Ministry during this pandemic. We will have break-out groups to do that. There will be announcements from NCOD Board of Directors including the recipient of the Father David Walsh Pastoral Worker of the Year 2021 Award. We’d love to see you, even thought it will be in virtual!
