The Mass will be celebrated by Don Luigi Portarulo, an Italian priest who spent over two decades in Rome and the Vatican, where he received his religious formation and served during the pontificates of St. John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and Francis. Since arriving in New York in 2022, Don Luigi has been instrumental in revitalizing the Italian Catholic community, serving at St. Patrick's Cathedral and the historic Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral in Little Italy.

The Mass will be followed by a community gathering with refreshments. All are welcome, and we hope this will be a meaningful opportunity to reconnect, celebrate our heritage, and strengthen our community.
