St. Charles dedication: God's transformational grace at work

A white plume of incense rising from the new altar stood out in bold relief April 10 before the sanctuary's refurbished wooden retablo and dispersed dramatically under the cloudscape-painted dome, "supported" by painted images of the four Gospel evangelists at St. Charles Borromeo Church in North Hollywood.
Eight months of restoration work on the Spanish Baroque church culminated in the concelebrated Mass of Dedication for the newly renovated building. Cardinal Roger Mahony (who, as a seminarian, was at the church's 1959 blessing) presided, with Auxiliary Bishops Edward Clark, Thomas Curry, Alex Salazar and Gerald Wilkerson concelebrating.
On April 10, 2014, St. Charles Borromeo parish in North Hollywood held a Dedication Mass for its newly renovated church. Concelebrants included Cardinal Roger Mahony, presider, and Auxiliary Bishops Edward Clark, Thomas Curry, Alex Salazar and Gerald Wilkerson.
