May 18, 2017

This evening, at our mother church, the Church of Saint Paul the Apostle in New York City, we held a Mass honoring the Paulist Fathers who this year celebrate milestone anniversaries of their ordinations.

The main celebrant was Paulist Fr. John Foley who is celebrating his 50th anniversary. The homilist was Paulist Fr. Rick Walsh who is celebrating his 25th anniversary. The concelebrants included Paulists celebrating their 40th and 60th anniversaries.

Here are just a few glimpses from this special Mass:
