The Dedication of Our 25th Anniversary Plaque at the Shrine of Our Lady of Czestochowa
There will be a special get together on Saturday, Oct. 30, 2021
in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, at the Our Lady of Czestochowa National Shrine.
Address: 654 Ferry Road, Doylestown, PA 18901
Mass at 10:00 am in the main basilica.
Following the Mass there will be a small ceremony of dedication of the plaque in the church vestibule to the right of the main altar, on the side of the Pilgrim House.
There is an elevator to the main Church, on the right side as you face the church, if you park in front of the Basilica. You can walk to the Basilica from a parking lot on the side of the Pilgrim House, or from the cafeteria, to the side entrance, without using the stairs.
We expect that Irene Krulewski will come with her family.
This is a surprise for her, so please do NOT contact her !!!
It would be very nice if as many members as possible could attend.
If you would like to come:
1/ you must let me know by this Saturday, October 23rd, because we are ordering lunch to follow the blessing ceremony.
( email: mary.c.bielski@gmail.com or text: 917 771 7130 )
2/let us know if you need a ride. Several of us are taking our cars.
If you have loved ones buried in the Shrine Cemetery, after lunch you can visit the graves, or just walk around to see the different beautiful monuments, and the small chapel. School children and scouts will be doing their annual cleaning, and decorating the graves of the veterans. There will be a laying of the wreaths ceremony for the veterans at the monument of the Husarz, the Avenging Angel, around 2 pm, but you do not have to attend that. On Sunday, the Pauline Fathers expect large crowds to attend the annual All Soul’s Day celebrations. It will be much less crowded on Saturday.
Note: Masks are not required inside or outside in Pennsylvania.
Please join us to celebrate the 25th anniversary of our association.
It is truly a milestone! We are not having our annual dinner dance, so that this will be the only opportunity to get together in the fall.
Yours truly,
Maria Bielska, President
Marie Sklodowska Curie Professional Women’s Association
P.S. If you cannot come, I would still appreciate a response, so that I know you are still a part of our association. You may also want to add your name and good wishes to a card for Irene, which we plan to give her with a bouquet of flowers at the dedication.
