This Friday June 19th, 2009, is the eve of the Feast of the Sacred Heart. The evening will mark the beginning of the worldwide celebration of the Year of the Priest, as designated by Our Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI. The Archdiocese of Miami will usher in the Year with a Mass at 7:00pm at St. John Bosco parish followed by Eucharistic Adoration throughout the evening and early morning hours. The Mass will be celebrated by Fr. Roberto Garza, the Vocations Director for the Archdiocese of Miami, possibly joined by the archbishop and one or more of the auxiliary bishops of the archdiocese.
The Eucharistic vigil will close with a dawn Mass celebrated at 5:00am on Saturday morning.
Fr. Garza has invited all men and women of the Archdiocese of Miami to join this special celebration of the Year of the Priest by attending one or both Masses and spending time with the Holy Eucharist at St. John Bosco this Friday June 19th. Your attendance is a wonderful opportunity to show your love and support of your archdiocesan priests. Please make every effort not to miss this time of special grace.
St. John Bosco Church is located at 1358 West Flagler Street, Miami, FL.
