NEW: Videos updated as of 6/7/09.
On June 5, 2009, the Prior General and Co-Founder of the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest, Monsignor Gilles Wach, along with the Vicar General, Monsignor Michael Schmitz, visited St. Margaret Mary (Oakland, California) - one of the parish apostolates of the Institute.

Monsignor Schmitz also announced during the homily that they had met with Bishop Salvatore Cordileone earlier the day to confirm that a Pontifical High Mass marking the 20th Anniversary of the Traditional Latin Mass at St. Margaret Mary is confirmed on Sept. 20, 2009. On Sept. 20, 1989, Fr. Vladimir Kozina was the first priest to have celebrated the Traditional Latin Mass at St. Margaret Mary (under the indult from then Bishop John Cummings) in the entire state of California.

There was benediction after the mass, and Canon Jean-Marie Moreau, the Episcopal Delegate of the Institute for Diocese of Oakland, led the consecration prayer of the Institute to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. Reception was followed afterwards at the parish basement.
