Two more videos from last Sunday’s festival. The first is the procession about to enter the Church:

There was already a pretty packed church at this point.

The final video is of the closing song in Italian at the end of the Rosary and the litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It should not be forgotten that for all the food and pastry and music this is a religious devotion.

The funds raised that you see pinned to the banner were enough to seed us for next year’s festival. Hope to see you there.

If you enjoyed a good Italian Meal at the Madonna Della Cava festival this year, you owe Patty a debt of thanks:

If you are attending the Blogger convention before the 9/11 march you might get a taste of her pastry. I’ll give no hint beyond that.

The 4th degree honor guard joins us before the start of the festival:

We will see them again next year, if you have a Catholic or Civic event and wish the Knights to march to add pageantry contact your local council.

My last video from CNMC was taken just as I had to run off with Lisa Henley who gave me a sec just before the Cardinal speak.

Unless my fortunes change a bit I will unlikely be able to make it next year, but I’m very happy to have been able to manage this one.

Update: Got her name wrong, corrected it
