Determined to carry on with tradition even during the coronavirus pandemic, leaders at the Shrine Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel are moving ahead with plans to mark the church’s feast day with scaled-down celebrations.
While there will be no procession of the Giglio along the streets of Williamsburg, the church will livestream a virtual Giglio celebration on Sunday, July 12 from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. that will feature photos of past processions as well as live music. On Feast Day, Thursday, July 16, Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio will celebrate Mass at the Shrine Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel at noon.
