On Sunday, September 17, about 100 people from Mt. Carmel Parish in East Boston honored the Madonna Addolorata with a Mass, procession and liturgy. Each year, the local Catholics from the Italian church proclaim their devotion to the Virgin Mary of Sorrow.

The Roma Band accompanied the march filling the streets with religious and patriotic sound.
