SUMMARY:Salvadoran Mass and Mexican Lunch
DESCRIPTION:  Join us for the twelve noon Spanish Mass at the Shrine o
	f the Sacred Heart. The Church is a big Byzantine style building - dar
	k inside and now filled with much devotional art brought in by the lar
	gely Salvadoran community. The German and Irish heritage of the parish
	 can still be seen in the Sacred Heart statue of Jesus inside the chur
	ch. Originally founded in the late 19th century\, the parish is now ru
	n by brown-robed-and-bearded Capuchin Franscican fathers and has a str
	ong tradition of social justice ministry. The noon Mass in Spanish is 
	very lively with great music. Dress code is neat but not formal. After
	 Mass\, we will head over to Taqueria Distrito Federal\, Ercilia's or 
	Haydee's - all authentical local restaurants with great reviews from t
	he local press. Filling meals for about $10. At Taqueria Distrito Fede
	ral\, the tacos\, burritos and quesadillas are modestly prices (around
	 $7) and are fresh\, delicious and filling. The restaurant makes its o
	wn traditional sweet drinks\, "aguas frescas"\, including horchata\, a
	n almond based drink - the drinks are stored in huge glass jars and th
	en ladeled out by the staff. Mount Pleasant is changing\, and has now 
	become partly gentrified. The parish is convenient to both the 16th St
	reet s series Metro busses (although these can run slow as the day mov
	es on). The Columbia Heights Green Line Metro Stop is about two blocks
	 from the parish. Wikipedia Article about Sacred Heart Parish http://e
