The Washington Archdiocese gave 325 tickets for the Sept. 23
canonization Mass of Blessed Junípero Serra to the
Arlington Diocese. Each diocesan parish received two
seated-area tickets; the number for the standing area
depended on the size of the parish. Pastors chose how to
distribute the tickets to the Mass, which will be celebrated
by Pope Francis at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the
Immaculate Conception in Washington.
