From Mario at CSPYA:

Cathedral of St Patrick Young Adults (a young adult apostolate for those in their 20s and 30s) will present a Movie Night in Honor of the Year of the Priest on April 22 at Cathedral Parish House, 14 East 51st Street (between Madison and 5th Avenue) from 6:30pm-9pm.

During the last few months of the Year of the Priest, the priesthood and the Holy Father are being attacked due to the recent sexual abuse findings. On this night, we will show and discuss the film, “I Confess” which is about a priest falsely accused of murder, even though he heard the confession of the murderer himself. The film portrays the courage of this priest and we hope to show you all that the priesthood is still the most heroic vocation today.

A coalition of Catholic young adult groups in New York City welcomes you to this first annual pilgrimage. Our city has been blessed throughout history with great saints, great churches, and holy Catholic men and women, and we invite you to join us in celebrating their legacy and finding inspiration in their life stories.

On March 20, 2010, we will walk from the shrine of St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, near Manhattan’s northern tip, to the shrine of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton , close to Battery Park.  Along the way, we will visit other churches connected to New York’s Catholic history. The event is free but you must register for the pilgrimage at www.pofnyc.org. Browse our website to learn more about the famous churches you can visit, the saints you will honor, and the routes you can follow.  If you wish you can make donations to worthy charities such as Pilgrimage of Our Children’s Future and St. Joseph’s Seminary on the web site.
