On February 7, Northeast Florida Area members joined together with members from the Federal Association in Jacksonville for a special Anointing Mass in honor of the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes. The morning opened with sacred music beautifully performed by the St. Joseph Choir, whose acclaimed ministry includes previous performances at the Vatican.

Mass was celebrated by Fr. Remek Blaszkowski, ChM, and concelebrated by a team of priests who assisted in anointing many of our beloved Malades. Several Malades were transported to the celebration by the Order, and all were lovingly guided and supported by our Knights and Dames throughout the liturgy.
