Christ Cathedral

The fifty year old Chrystal Cathedral  will now be known as Christ Cathedral in the Diocese of Orange County, California.  Renovations will start in July 2013 and take about a year to complete so it can be used for Catholic services. It was announced that the Cathedral will have a central alter most likely a table, a Bishop's Chair displayed prominently and a tabernacle some place in the Cathedral. 

Christ Cathedral will have an ecumenical dimension so that other "Christian" communities can identify with  so we can be sure that there will not be statues of Blessed Virgin or other saints.   It is not known if the Cathedral will have a permanent crucifix displayed, a confessional or Stations of the Cross.
