The Catholic Diocese of San Bernardino will hold its fourth annual migration Mass and celebration Sunday in Yucaipa.
Auxiliary Bishop Rutilio del Riego will preside over the Mass, which will be at 2 p.m. at St. Frances Xavier Cabrini Catholic Church, 12687 California St.
The Mass, part of the diocese's observance of National Migration Week, will include customs and rituals from several cultures. The Mass will be in several languages, said diocesan spokesman John Andrews.
Parishioners will receive postcards to urge their members of Congress to support comprehensive immigration-law reform that includes the legalization of many undocumented immigrants and the reuniting of families.
The Diocese of San Bernardino encompasses Riverside and San Bernardino counties.
