It's just been announced that Sunday Mass for the Catholic New Media Celebration will take place at 9:30 AM in St. Mary's Catholic Church. You can find the church at 202 North St. Mary's Street. To get there from outside the hotel, just turn left and walk a few blocks. The church will be across the street.
Up to today, there's been speculation that the Archbishop will celebrate Mass with us. However, I can tell you that is highly unlikely, as Archbishop Gomez has been scheduled to celebrate an 11 AM Mass out-of-town. I will not be surprised to see our Bishop Oscar Cantu celebrate Mass with us, if any of the archdiocesan bishops are joining us. Bishop Cantu keeps a blog at http://bishopcantu.wordpress.com/
You may be interested in taking advantage of your stay to close the Year of St. Paul beyond attending the CNMC.
If that's the case, I encourage you to check out an event called Continuing in the Footsteps of St. Paul after your lunch! You'll learn from one of the foremost Catholic scholars on St. Paul and a former teacher of mine, Father George Montague, S.M., as well as the archdiocese's reknown Director for Evangelization, Martha Fernandez-Sardina.
The seminar takes place at 2 PM in the AT&T Center and Cafe on the grounds of San Fernando Cathedral. It lasts until 5 PM, when a Mass will be celebrated. At 6:30 PM, Archbishop Jose Gomez and Auxiliary Bishop Oscar Cantu will celebrate Solemn Vespers for the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul in the Cathedral.
This can serve as an excellent close to your San Antonio pilgrimage. To register for the event, contact the Office for Evangelization at 1.210.734.1990. $10 will get you the seminar and dinner.
