Our parish will celebrate our patronal feast at all Masses next weekend and hold its Annual Picnic on Our Lady of Sorrows campus. As a rule, the Sunday liturgy would be celebrated but since Our Lady of Sorrows is the co-patroness of our parish and the titular of the church, we are permitted to use the texts of Our Lady’s Mass since a patronal feast is given the rank of “Solemnity.” Special “worship aids” will be provided to the assembly. Let us gather with joy to thank Our Lady for her maternal care and implore her continued intercession for ourparish family.
