Corpus Christi Cathedral, Tlalnepantla
The Corpus Christi Cathedral ( es, Catedral de Corpus Christi) also called Tlalnepantla Cathedral was consecrated on August 23, 1964 in Tlalnepantla de Baz, Mexico. Previously, the Convent of San Francisco was founded on the site, built by the Franciscan order in 1525. Subsequently, a flat-roofed temple with wooden beams began to be built, whose height was much lower than the current cathedral, and which was named Corpus Christi. After the fire of 1666, its structure and architecture were modified. During the earthquake in the early 20th century, the building suffered great damage, which made it necessary to carry out repairs that can be seen on the walls of the north side. Among some of the stones used for its erection, one can observe glyphs and fretwork from the indigenous and colonial periods.

Corpus Christi Cathedral (Corpus Christi, Texas)
Corpus Christi Cathedral is a cathedral church located in Corpus Christi, Texas, United States. It is the seat of the Catholic Diocese of Corpus Christi. History St. Patrick's Cathedral In the early years of Corpus Christi, priests would come from as far away as Laredo and Victoria to minister to the pastoral needs of the Catholics in the area. Because there was no church building Mass was celebrated in private homes. The Rev. Bernard O'Reilly was assigned by Bishop Jean-Marie Odin of Galveston to be the first pastor in Corpus Christi. Mass was being celebrated in a small adobe church by 1855, two years before the structure itself was completed.
