On October 7, the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, parishioners from St. Vincent Ferrer Church on Manhattan’s Upper East Side took their faith to the streets, leading the parish’s first-ever Rosary procession from the church to the Bethesda Fountain in Central Park. Organized by the Dominican friars, the candlelit walk brought hundreds together to pray for peace and healing in the city, briefly transforming Central Park into an outdoor chapel.

The concert for the poor began as the initiative of Pope Francis in 2015, although he did not attend any of the performances.
