St. Patrick's Day Parade

His Excellency, Bishop Herbert Bevard, and Fr. Patrick Lynch, CSsR, pastor of St. Patrick Church on St. Croix, led the parishioners and St. Patrick School students in their annual St. Patrick's Day parade through Frederiksted this past Sunday.

After the patronal Mass and parade, Bishop Bevard blessed a shrine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary at St. Patrick School.

At the closing of the patronal celebration, Bishop Bevard tried his hand at the steel pan at the reception in St. Gerard Hall. He said he was asked to play solo – “so low” that no one could hear him!
