Eight Silver Roses are traveling across North America from Canada to Mexico as symbols of devotion, unity and respect for the sanctity of human life. One of the roses, en route to Yorktown Heights, reflects the Marian apparition to St. Juan Diego, in which roses filled his tilma and revealed the image of the Virgin Mary. The service will be held Friday, July 24, from 7 to 8 p.m. at St. Patrick’s main church, 137 Moseman Rd.
