Until now, the 2010 Mass in the same location, the upper church of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, held the top honor, with “more than 3,500 people,” according to the Washington, D.C. archdiocesan newspaper<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 Can it be topped?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The celebrant for the 1 p.m. Mass will be His Excellency Alexander K. Sample, who issued the following “tweet<\/a>” yesterday:<\/div>\n
