The Italian American community in Peekskill gathered on Thursday at the Church of the Assumption to celebrate the feast of Saint Anthony of Padua with a Mass in Italian.
The Mass was followed by a “festa” in the church hall where parishioners sang and danced and gave thanks for their Italian culture.

Bishop Edmund Whalen will lead a bilingual prayer service at the end of the walk.
