Mass at The Basilica of St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral in the Gaelic (Irish) Language Saturday, March 14, 2015, at 12 noon at The Basilica of St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral on Mott Street between Prince and Houston Streets Mass will be celebrated in The Basilica of St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral in association with the New York Irish History Roundtable and Glucksman Ireland House NYU. For the eighth consecutive year, the New York Irish History Roundtable, Glucksman Ireland House NYU, and The Basilica of Saint Patrick’s Old Cathedral will celebrate an Irish-language Mass. The Mass will be celebrated by Fr. Andrew O’Connor of St. Mary's Church in downtown Manhattan, and concelebrated by Monsignor Donald Sakano, pastor of Old St. Patrick’s. There will be Irish liturgical music by Cantor Paddy Connolly with accompaniment by Jared Lamenzo on the Cathedral’s historic 1868 Erben organ. Following the Mass, a live band will entertain the crowd with live ceili music inside at the newly-renovated St. Patrick's Youth Center on Mulberry Street. We will have Irish Step Dancers from the Niall O'Leary School of Irish Dance, food and Irish soda bread. There also will be beverages available. So, we will enjoy the Mass, followed by ceili (great music), craic (great conversation), dancing, food, and beverages. Come and join us to celebrate the Feast of Saint Patrick! There is no charge to attend. Free-will contributions will be gratefully accepted.
