Quarter of a Century In Reverent Adoration

Posted

A Corpus Christi Mass and Eucharistic procession followed by Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament commemorated 25 years of Perpetual Adoration for Our Lady of the Eucharist Perpetual Adoration Chapel on the grounds of the Society of St. Paul at Alba House on Victory Boulevard on Staten Island. The liturgy was offered at nearby Holy Family Church June 3. Msgr. Peter Finn, dean of Staten Island and pastor of Blessed Sacrament parish, Staten Island, served as principal celebrant, as he did for the inaugural liturgy. Auxiliary Bishops John O’Hara and Peter Byrne were also in attendance, along with numerous clergy. A procession inside the church followed the Mass. The liturgy was filmed for use as a springboard for a national campaign to promote Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration.
