I have a framed, printed blessing hanging in my home, a gift from a religious sister in Ohio many years ago. It begins with these words: “May you be steadfast on your journey, powered by the message of love and the command to serve. May you wear the Gospel on your sleeve.”

The solemn Mass will be presided in Spanish by Monsignor José Dolores Grullón Estrella, Bishop Emeritus of the Diocese of San Juan de la Maguana, who is visiting from the Dominican Republic. The Dominican People are the largest Hispanic immigrant group in Rhode Island.
