Blessing of Throats — Monday, February 3


Today, we celebrate the Feast Day of St. Blaise, bishop and martyr. St. Blaise is remembered for saving a child from choking on a fishbone, an act that inspired the tradition of blessing throats. Join us at the conclusion of tonight’s 6:30 p.m. Mass for a blessing of throats. While this blessing traditionally focuses on throat ailments, it is also a prayer for healing and protection from all illnesses. St. Blaise, pray for us!
