Photo Coverage of the Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate 58th Holy Dormition Pilgrimage (Aug 11 & 12, 2012)

Sloatsburg PiligramageSloatsburg, NY - Over 3500 pilgrims attended the 58th Annual Dormition Pilgrimage in Sloatsburg, NY, which was blessed by God with beautiful weather. The workshops on Saturday focused on the “Vibrant Parish- a place to encounter the Living Christ” and one could see that happening throughout the weekend as dedicated priests sat for hours in the warm sun confessing thousands of pilgrims. Once again Metropolitan Stefan Soroka, Bishop Paul Chomnycky and Bishop Emeritus Basil Losten graced the pilgrimage with there presence. The pilgrims attending the Pontifical Divine Liturgy on Sunday were nourished by receiving the Holy Eucharist but they were also nourished by the spiritually uplifting homily of Bishop Richard Seminack, Eparchy of Chicago. Young and not so young prayed, talked and enjoyed each other on this weekend at the “holy mountain of Sloatsburg.”
