His Eminence Anthony Cardinal Poola Archbishop of Hyderabad India celebrated Mass on Saturday October 8, 2022 at 11:00am at St. Ann's Church. This was in thanksgiving to God after his elevation. The New York oratory of Saint Philip Neri has members originated from India and some of them from the Diocese of Hyderabad that he leads as Archibishop. It was a great time of communion with the Oratory Family in Rockland County and the Indian Community around. More Photos of the Visit
The New York Oratory of St. Philip Neri is a young religious community. It was formally established in 2007, and all of its members — both its founders and those who have arrived since then — had already been ordained as priests. Deacon Steve is the first one ever to be directly ordained as a New York Oratorian of St. Philip Neri. Click here for more photos
