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.

See our report in the video above.

The revival -- a three-year initiative of the U.S. bishops aimed at renewing Catholic belief in Jesus' real presence in the Eucharist -- began in 2022.
