BETANIA XIII Healing Mass
Aligning with the Church’s Eucharistic revival, a healing Mass was held at St. Francis on June 23.
Father Gio Belanich presided, processing throughout the church with the Monstrance containing the Holy Eucharist, stopping periodically to bless the congregation at this special Mass.
This was just one of a number of parish events planned leading up to the New York State Eucharistic Congress scheduled for October 20-22 at Our Lady of Martyrs Shrine in Auriesville, New York.
