In addition to the usual Sung Masses for Wednesday, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, below are special events taking place at the very active and extremely vibrant Church of the Holy Innocents (the only parish in the archdiocese of NY with the daily traditional Mass):
1) On Thursday, June 4, 2015 (the Feast of Corpus Christi ), Holy Innocents wi ll have its annual celebration of this beautiful and very Catholic Feast with a Solemn Mass at 6 PM and an outdoors procession immediately after. This is the sixth year that Holy Innocents has its Corpus Christi procession in midtown Manhattan. Blessed holy cards will be distributed to the faithful in attendance as they come into the church.*
2) On Friday, June 5, 2015, (first Friday of the month) newly-ordained Fr. Simon Zurita will be saying his traditional (Solemn) Mass of thanksgiving at 6 PM. Fr. Zurita will offer his priestly blessing to the faithful after the Mass, and there will be a festive reception in the parish hall (of course!).
3) On Tuesday, June 9, 2015, the newly-formed Catholic Daughters' Court at Holy Innocents will sponsor a special Solemn Mass at 6 PM. After Holy Mass, two traditional Catholic film-directors (Jim Morlino and Liam Firmager) will show screenings of St. Bernadette of Lourdes, The War of the Vendee, and The Life and times of Gabriel García Moreno (the Catholic president of Ecuador who consecrated that nation to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus) . As always, there will also be another reception for this.
4) On Friday, June 12, 2015, the Feat of Sacred Heart , we will have a Solemn Mass at 6 PM.
This Feast is closely linked to the Feast of Corpus Christi and we

6) On Wednesday, June 24, 2015 is the first class Feast of St. John the Baptist. We will have a Solemn Mass at 6 PM. In
the Catholic Church, there has always been great devotion to St. John
the Baptist, so much so that he is one of the very few Saints mentioned
in the traditional Confiteor. Very beautiful holy cards will be distributed to the faithful in attendance.*

we always observe this particular Feast with great solemnity and
devotion (by attending the traditional Mass on this Feast and praying to
the Holy Ghost for guidance for the reigning Supreme Pontiff).
