The Memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows (in our parish, a “solemnity,”) is observed this Saturday, September 15. Since it is our patronal feast, liturgical norms allow for the celebration to be moved to the closest Sunday. Thus, the Mass in honor of Our Lady of Sorrows will replace that of the 24th Sunday of Ordinary Time. Our celebration will continue with our annual parish family picnic!
