The traditional Mass community in Jersey City is having a fundraising evening for the music program for the traditional Mass at the Church of St. Anthony (Jersey City).

The Taste of Spain fundraiser for Cantantes In Cordibus, a 501c3 entity that supports and cultivates sacred music in Jersey City will take place on Thursday June 23rd, 7 pm to 10 pm.

Tickets are $100 a piece and limited to 60 people.

With absolutely no political message at all (except perhaps to the contrary of the eponymous developer), the event will take place at the Trump Plaza in Jersey City and will feature food, wine music and dancing of Spain. Restaurants such as Raval and Satis in Jersey City will be contributing food.

Please consider enjoying this event that will help sustain civilization as stasis envelopes it since, as Dostoevsky said, “only beauty will save the world.”

If you cannot make this event, donations are always accepted!

(Above) The “Old Cathedral” of St. Patrick’s – in the process of restoration.

Today there took place a pilgrimage of parishioners of Holy Innocents Church to the Church of the Most Precious Blood. This has been designated as having a “door of mercy” for the Archdiocese.

Msgr. Sakano, the pastor of Old St. Patrick’s, talked about the restoration project.

“A lot more people than expected.”

There followed a tour of the crypt.

The group of pilgrims then assembled to head south to the “Shrine of the Most Precious Blood,” which is joined with Old St. Patrick’s since “Making all Things New.”

Solemn Vespers followed.

(Above and below) This church, just steps away from the chaos of Little Italy and Canal Street, is a quiet sanctuary of Catholic devotions – both those of Italian cities and villages and those known throughout the Church. A relic of St Anthony of Padua is coming next week!
