Mass of Thanksgiving for the Canonization of Cardinal Newman

Posted by Stuart Chessman 
St. Catherine of Siena

A Solemn Mass was held on Wednesday, October 9 in the Church of St Catherine of Siena in New York in thanksgiving for the upcoming canonization of Cardinal Newman. Our thanks to the parish of St. Vincent Ferrer and St Catherine of Siena and especially to the parish’s music director, James Wetzel, for making this evening possible. For it involved a fortunate last minute change of location.

This solemn “20th Century Gothic” church provided a suitably grand setting for the festive liturgy.

(Above) Fr. Cipolla preached a memorable sermon, found HERE. David Hughes directed the music (including his own setting of a hymn written by Fr, Hunwicke)

It was a joy to see so many in attendance – faces familiar and unfamiliar.
Wine and cheese afterwards. Many of the New York “Trad” community exchanged greetings.
