The annual event draws together families and friends from around the area for a day of fun and faith including Mass celebrated by Bishop Edmund Whalen, Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of New York and vicar for clergy.
“To you and to all, I pray: Paz y bien. Peace and all good things, forever and ever,” the archbishop said.
