Join us for the 4pm Mass as we commemorate the 142nd anniversary of the appointment of our first resident pastor, Rev. John J. Hamel who served our parish for 36 years until the day he died in 1912. This anniversary date (NOV. 24, 1876) was annually celebrated for decades in the 20th century. Our parish renewed the commemoration in 2016 for the 140th anniversary of his arrival. We still use the silver Gothic chalice that Fr. Hamel bequeathed the parish. He is honored in the basilica in a special scroll bearing his name and title by the St. Joseph side altar. The giant Crucifixion window is dedicated to him as well. We honor all our previous 8 pastors since 1876, and Fr. Hamel in particular on this day. More info about him is at the link above.
