NYC Area Mobile Ministry Drives Supplies to Lourdes Pilgrimage Flight
Last Thursday, Tiffany Mazza, Carla Gunerard, and Matt LaRose of the American Association Office asked Eric Vitale, KM, Steve Bujno, KM, and the NYC Mobile Ministries Team to support the Lourdes Pilgrimage. The Office held over 20 boxes of pilgrimage supplies, including raincoats, prayer cards, and water bottles, and needed the NYC Mobile Ministry to transport the bulk.
Amber Vitale, DM, lent her keys to Pete Clemente, KM, and he drove the Van to the Office where a team helped load up the supplies.
Then, Michael Smilek, KM, drove the van from Manhattan to JFK Airport, where many Members and Affiliates helped to instantly unload the van: the Lourdes Pilgrimage Auxiliary, Co-Hosts Jean and Debbie Brunel; Co-Presidents Stacey Reisman and John “Mitch” Mitchell; American Association President Kenneth Craig; Team & Travel Coordinators Dr. and Mrs. John and Nancy Murphy; the NY Office Team; American Association Hospitaller Anne Peach, DM; and the Advance Team.
The supplies helped support all on pilgrimage, including the Dames, Knights, and Malades, 15 Chaplains, 21 Affiliates, and an incredible medical team of more than 40 doctors, nurses, and student nurses.
