Join us for the ancient sacramental offering of the blessing of the sick with a relic of the True Cross, dating to the 6th Century Benedictine St. Maurus. The Blessing of the Sick has been celebrated at St. Bonaventure Monastery since the 1880s, and was a favorite sacramental of Blessed Solanus Casey.
