Memorial for Fred Borsch, 1pm June 10
On Saturday June 10, at 1pm, we will be holding the Memorial Service for our beloved parishioner and former Bishop of the Diocese of Los Angeles, the Rt. Rev. Frederick Houk Borsch.
Clergy are invited to vest with white stoles, with arrival time of 12:30pm.
City parking, for a fee, is available in the structure across the street from the church. If it is full, there is another lot on 4th, just north of Wilshire (somewhat hidden on the left).
Bishop Borsch's lifelong ministry and impact on the Diocese of Los Angeles and the national church were powerfully captured in obituaries from coast to coast:
