The Very Rev. Msgr. Joseph F. Ambrosio, Priest Prior of the American Delegation, invites the Knights, Dames and Priest Chaplains of the Order to attend the External Solemnity of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish in Newark on Sunday, July 14th. A Solemn High Mass will be sung at 5:00 p.m., followed by a grand procession through the parish accompanied by the Tony Neglia Feast Band. Following the procession there will be a light reception hosted by Msgr. Ambrosio. The parish will be hosting its annual Italian festival with stands in the streets and live entertainment at that time.

Knights, Dames and Priest Chaplains should vest in the Mount Carmel Rectory parlor at 4:30 p.m. The rectory is located at 259 Oliver Street, Newark, New Jersey. Church mantle for Knights and Dames, cassock, surplice and mozzetta for priests.

This is very much a major event annually for the Order. Please make every effort to attend. Remember that the members of the Order have an obligation to actively participate in its religious functions as their state in life permits.

We hope to see many of you on the 14th. Please do your best to attend.
