Bishop Larry Silva celebrated the diocese’s “White Mass,” an annual liturgy for physicians, surgeons, nurses and other health care providers, Oct. 30 at the Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace. Dr. Emma Avila, right, was among the roughly 80 attendees at the liturgy. Dioceses around the world hold White Masses in October in honor of the feast of St. Luke the Evangelist, patron of physicians and surgeons. (HCH photo | Darlene Dela Cruz)
