Friday, September 15, is the Memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows. However, since Our Lady under this title is the co-patron on our parish, this Memorial is raised to the rank of a Solemnity within our community.
Since Mary is also the "titular" of our parish church, which is to say the church building has been dedicated or given the title of Our Lady of Sorrows, we are permitted to move the celebration to Sunday, September 17. All Masses of the day will be celebrated as the rank of a "Solemnity."
The parish will continue the celebration at the Parish Picnic following the 11:00 AM Mass.
