September 11 Mass
Our Lady of Perpetual Help- St Agnes Parish will have an additional mass at 7 p.m. Monday, September 11 in commemoration of the September 11 destruction of the World Trade Center in New York.
The mass will honor all those who lost their lives in the attack on the United States as well as all the volunteers and emergency men and women who responded to the emergency both here as well as in New York.
The 9-11 attack had a tremendous impact on this area, both because the number of local residents who were killed at the World Trade Center and the number of local personnel who assisted with the thousands of survivors who were brought out of New York by Sea Streak, fishing boats and other volunteers for safety. Once in Atlantic Highlands, hundreds of volunteers assisted with necessities for those brought to the harbor, including providing and assisting with transportation for those impacted to get to their own homes.
The 7 pm. evening mass is in addition to the daily mass offered Monday mornings at 7 a.m. at St. Agnes.
