27th Annual Archdiocesan Posada

The 27th Annual Archdiocesan Posada at Holy Name Cathedral took place on December 15, 2013. Posada, which means shelter in Spanish, commemorates the journey Mary and Joseph took from Nazareth to Bethlehem and reenacts the couple's search for shelter before the birth of Christ.
