VISITING AUTHOR/EDITOR ARTICLE MAY 2009 United German Hungarians Donauschwaben Pilgrimage Forwarded From United German Hungarians, Philadelphia
We have been invited to attend the 31st German pilgrimage on Sunday, June 7th at the Shrine of St. John Neumann at St Peter’s Church at 5th Street & Girard avenue in Philadelphia. Although many of our groups are committed to attend events elsewhere, we encourage all who may be interested to attend this event. There will be a procession at 10:15 AM and a memorial mass at 10:30 AM. This pilgrimage is sponsored by the Danube Swabians of Phila., Trenton, and New York. The memorial mass is in honor of the people who died in the camps of Yugoslavia, Banat, Russia and for the deceased in the old and new homelands, and for those forced from their homes in East Prussia, Silesia, Sudentenland, Bohemia, Gotschee, Rumania and Hungary. There will be a dinner following at the Danube Swabian in Philadelphia at 1 pm. The mass will be celebrated by Rev. Charles Zlock of St. Martin of Tours Church, Rev. Kevin Moley, pastor of St Peter Church and Rev. Engelbert Michel of St. Christopher Church. Music at the Franz Schubert Mass will be provided by the Franklinville/Schwarzwald Quartett Clubs and the Damenchor Wald-Echo. For dinner reservations – 215-322-6477.
