Bishop Larry Silva celebrated Mass at the Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Peace Aug. 16 as the church marked its 181st dedication anniversary. He was joined by vicar general Msgr. Gary Secor, right, and, from left, Deacon Joe Almuena, Father Jose Dias, Father Lazarus Anondee and Father Pascual Abaya. The cathedral basilica’s actual dedication date is Aug. 15, 1843, but it is observed a day later due to the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary also falling on Aug. 15.
