Last Monday morning (July 27th) I joined members of the Craco Society and Saint Rocco Society of Potenza at St. Joseph's Church in Chinatown for the big move to Most Precious Blood Church in Manhattan's historic Little Italy. Sadly, after nearly 90 years, St. Joseph's will be shutting its doors as part of the latest wave of church closings on August 1st.
Thankfully, the societies made an agreement with the Archdiocese of New York to relocate the relic of San Vincenzo Martire di Craco and society statues (San Rocco and San Vincenzo) to Most Precious Blood. Naturally, we are very sad about the closing (we shared a lot of good times over the years and have some great memories), but we're also extremely excited about our new home and optimistic our feasts will continue to grow in popularity.
