Sunday morning, members of the Societá SS. Crocifisso di Ciminna a New York and Congrega San Vito di Ciminna Club celebrated the Feast of SS. Crocifisso at St. Athanasius Church in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. Mass, of course, was beautiful, but sadly the procession was cancelled due to the inclement weather. Disappointed, but not down, the festivities continued in the school gymnasium, where partygoers enjoyed an early lunch and great company. Evviva SS. Crocifisso!
