What kind of journey has the American parish been on? Where is the Church going—and why should we have hope for the future?
Join the Boston Chapter of NPM and the Cathedral of the Holy Cross for an inspiring afternoon with Richard J. Clark, Archdiocesan and Cathedral Director of Music.
Continuity & Hope: Journey of the American Parish and Its Future in the New Rite
📅 Sunday, August 30
🕒 3:00 PM
📍 Cathedral of the Holy Cross

Drawing on more than six decades since the Second Vatican Council and the introduction of the New Rite in 1969, Richard will reflect on the remarkable journey of the American parish and offer a hopeful vision for the future.
Following the presentation, enjoy conversation, prayer, and fellowship. If you're not scheduled to serve, you're also warmly invited to stay for the Cathedral's 5:30 PM Mass.
