On Sunday, December 11, 2011 we celebrated a solemn mass of thanksgiving for the canonization of St. Guido Conforti, founder of the Xaverian Missionaries. The mass was held at St. Bridget’s Parish in Framingham, Masschusetts where Msgr. Strahan is pastor. Cardinal Sean O’Malley presided, along with Bishop McManus of the Diocese of Worcester, MA.
After the multilingual liturgy, about 250 friends gathered for a meal of thanksgiving. We are grateful to all who have made this celebration possible. Thanks too to Mr. Mike Maraffino for the photos.
May this happy occasion be a way to deepen and enliven the global mission of the church.
