Participating Emergency Responder and Military attendees are encouraged to the wear their dress uniforms, but doing so is not required.
There will be a luncheon served immediately following the Mass at the Fr. Sullivan Hall at the church.
As we expect a wide attendance from the larger community of the surrounding Orange County NY area, we ask that all present please remember all those who choose to receive Eucharist during the mass must be Catholic and in good standing with the Church as per the Church’s guidelines of the reception of Holy Communion. Those of other faiths and Christian denominations not in union with the Catholic Church are welcome to attend the mass, but should not receive Holy Communion during that portion of the mass.
Directions for the event can be found here.
