On May 22, Provincial Anthony B. Pizzo attended the celebration of the Feast of St. Rita at the National Shrine of St. Rita of Cascia in downtown Philadelphia, PA. The celebration was also attended by Cardinal Christophe Pierre, Apostolic Nuncio to the United States (photographed at right) and many of our brothers from the St. Thomas of Villanova Province.
