However have no fear, I have a bunch of scheduled posts coming up covering things from the Ground Zero Mosque, Tire Maintenance, and more chapters to the Field guide.
If you are in driving range of Fitchburg here are the details.
There will be a procession from St. Anthony School (Salem Street) containing the Banner of the Madonna, The local branch of the society, a honor guard from the Knights of Columbus and the parishioners and a band.
After a short prayer the procession will enter the church where the banner will be placed and Mass will be celebrated.
Rep Steven DiNatale of Fitchburg will briefly speak before the 1st reading on the devotion.
At the conclusion of Mass the Rosary will be said in English.
A second procession will then escort the Banner of the Madonna to the Church hall.
The Band will perform and Italian Food and pastry will be served.
The ceremony will conclude with the Rosary in Italian.
Things begin at 10 a.m. It would be a good idea to get there a little early for parking.
And no I didn’t pull a Rahm Emmanuel as suggested last year so I won’t make a buck off of it.



I hope the festival was great. The North End of Boston actually also had a festival for Maria Della Cava on Sunday of CNMC weekend and I went (and Fr. Jay and Dr. Paul went later). It was lots of fun – good food, games and entertainment. Good stuff! :)
I will be uploading photos and video later today as time allows
