Patrick Cantlay’s PGA summer of fun

Friday, 05 August 2011 08:49

At 19, Patrick Cantlay has had quite a summer.

In June, the soon-to-be-a-sophomore at UCLA from Los Alamitos played in his first professional golf tournament, which just happened to be the U.S. Open. He not only made the cut into the final two rounds of the storied venue, but was the low amateur with an even-par 284 at the challenging Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland. The teenager’s scorecard (75-67-70-72, tied for 21st) was the best by a non-professional in four decades.

As the entrance procession wound its way into the church to Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” loud applause and cheering could be heard as parishioners caught sight of present pastor Father Edwin Duyshart leading the procession that included Msgrs. Sean Acton (pastor from 1970-1978) and Alfred Hernandez (1978-1997), and Father Arturo Velasco (1997-2010), as well as Archbishop Jose Gomez and San Fernando Region Auxiliary Bishop Gerald Wilkerson.

‘Dog Day’ at Cathedral creates community

Thursday, 04 August 2011 16:00

The fifth annual Downtown Dog Day Afternoon at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels would have distracted Snoopy from chasing the Red Baron long enough to land his Sopwith Camel biplane in the Cathedral’s “plaza of the people” — if the intrepid Beagle could have only found room.

This year’s bowwow benefit drew a record 794 dogs and 1,359 people, who carpeted the popular sacred gathering place. The July 26 6-to-9 p.m. happening, in fact, resembled a canine’s outdoor Noah’s ark with a distinct SoCal twist.

30-plus Lay Carmelites profess vows at St. Raphael’s

Thursday, 28 July 2011 16:00

“This is just the beginning. I keep on telling people, ‘We’re going to have a hundred in a year-and-a-half who are going to be Carmelites.’ This is just the beginning. And what is it that they’re trying to do? What they are trying to do is what all of us are trying to do. We’re seeking God. That’s what the Carmelite vocation is — seek the face of God and to be open and free to say: ‘I want to walk to Jesus.’ That’s what they’re doing.
