San Vincenzo, Martire di Craco, ora pro nobis
|
Sunday morning, members of the Craco Society celebrated the 119th Feast of San Vincenzo, Martire di Craco, at the Shrine Church of the Precious Blood (113 Baxter St.) in Little Italy, New York. Mass was celebrated by
Rev. Monsignor Nicholas Grieco, who spoke at length about our beloved San Vincenzo, San Maurizio and the rest of the glorious Theban Legion. Evviva San Vincenzo! |
