Forward in Mission is a Jubilee-themed website created by LA Catholics to commemorate 250 years of Catholic faith in the Los Angeles region. It was built around the 250th anniversary of Mission San Gabriel Arcángel and covers the Jubilee Year from September 2021 to September 2022, publishing information on Masses, prayers, pilgrimages, historical exhibitions, and parish resources.
The site is not a commercial service, but an information hub for a religious commemorative initiative. It provides details on the opening Mass, closing Mass, 250th-anniversary prayer services, livestream access, news coverage, photo galleries, pilgrimage sites, Holy Doors, the Camino pilgrimage, the Jubilee prayer, as well as homily prompts, petitions, curriculum materials, and pastoral resources for parishes and schools. For diocesan organizers, it functions more like an event guide and resource library.
No paid content is shown in the main text. The prayers, event descriptions, resource pages, and livestream access are publicly available, so the site can be regarded as a free public-interest resource. If specific offline events involve transportation, donations, or parish-level costs, no related pricing information is provided on the page.
The main strengths are its focused theme and rich collection of materials. It brings together liturgical, historical, pilgrimage, and educational resources for a large diocesan Jubilee initiative in one place. It also offers a Spanish-language entry point, which fits the diverse demographic context of Los Angeles. Photos, external news links, and livestream content further enhance its commemorative and outreach value.
The downside is that this is clearly a time-limited special-purpose site. Most major activities took place in 2021–2022, so it now functions more as an archive. Interactivity is limited, with no obvious registration, sign-up, search, calendar subscription, or other features commonly found on modern event platforms. Its content is also highly tailored to the Catholic community, so its practical value for non-religious users is relatively narrow.
It is best suited to members of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, clergy, parish volunteers, Catholic school teachers, researchers of religious history, and anyone interested in Mission San Gabriel and the development of Catholicism in Los Angeles. It can also serve as a reference for planning commemorative liturgies, parish prayer events, or pilgrimages.
The main pages of the site should theoretically be directly accessible, but the content includes YouTube livestream links and external news resources. Since YouTube is not directly accessible in mainland China, the overall experience should be rated as “partially restricted.”
