Following an historic year, 2020, the Saint Rocco Society was able to again continue its undisturbed tradition of Mass and procession for Saint Rocco in Little Italy, NYC. The Saint Rocco Society of Potenza diligently worked to ensure that their faith and tradition could continue despite a torrential downpour throughout the entire procession.
A global pandemic couldn’t stop the society in 2020 and a hurricane didn’t stop them in 2021. The faithful gathered at Most Precious Blood church for mass in what was a stronger turnout than last year despite the consistently pouring rain.
