Celebrate with Us  - The Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe

On Sunday, December 12, 2021, faithful from across our Diocese will gather at the Cathedral of Saint Patrick to celebrate The Annual Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Join us at 6:30 pm to pray the Rosary and attend Confession. The bilingual  Eucharistic Celebration will begin at 7pm.
The Most Reverend Michael R. Cote, D.D., Bishop of Norwich is the Principal Celebrant. Following the Liturgical celebration, please join us for a fiesta of delightful music, delicious food & warm fellowship, as together we honor Our Lady and ask her intercession for peace in our hearts, in our homes, in our land, and in our world. A free-will offering will be asked to cover the cost of the buffet.


Do not let anything worry you; do not fear sickness, accident or pain. Am I not here, she who is your Mother? Are you not in the fold of my arms and under my protection? Is there anything else you need?” 
Words of Our Lady to Juan Diego and to you.


For more information, please contact the Office for Hispanic Ministry: aposthispano@gmail.com

Livestream Available at NorwichDiocese.org/Masses for those who are unable to attend

Did I Really Meet a Saint?
My friend Greg and I were walking down 5th Avenue in Manhattan, I was nineteen years old.

The challenge is reaching them before that moment passes. That is the opportunity Father Brian Converse sees in the Tri-Parish Community’s renewed Evangelization Program, sponsored by St. Mary, Mother of t...
