My dear Brothers and Sisters in the Lord,

  Welcome to the forty-third, annual Columbus Day Mass!

  How blessed it is today for us to join together once again in the gothic masterpiece that is
Saint Patrick’s Cathedral! We gather to celebrate the Eucharist in honor of the millions of
Italian immigrant men, women and children, who came to America in search of the unique
opportunities we share as a proud nation.

  Today, with warm hearts and grateful sentiments, we remember and give thanks for the
extraordinary courage of the ordinary men, women and children who bravely took a chance, left
everything they had in Italy, and made a life for themselves, beyond their dreams, in this City of
Immigrants! And they were reassured again and again by the comforting presence of God they
knew within themselves and in his Church. Bravi!

  This year, in the face of the frightening Coronavirus and genuine social unrest, we must
expand our vision and use the pride in our heritage and Faith to more intentionally reach out
beyond our comfort zone to show respect to our needy neighbors, that is, anyone who is “near.”
Many do not share our cultural heritage or religious traditions ... but they are our “relatives,” in
a real sense, because they are sons and daughters of the same Father in heaven. Precisely because
of our rich heritage, we must readily assist and defend the vulnerable. Remember, it was for this
common sense of justice and mercy that our forefathers came to America, and it is still what a
self-sacrificing God expects! This is what we Christians do!

  Please know how privileged I feel, standing with you at the altar of our Lord and Savior today!

  Saluting you and your loved ones, I am,

                                                      Faithfully in Christ,

                                                      Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan

Cari Fratelli e Sorelle in Cristo,

  Benvenuti alla quarantatreesima messa annuale del Columbus Day!

  Che benedizione oggi, poterci riunire ancora una volta in questo capolavoro gotico che è la
Cattedrale di San Patrizio! Ci riuniamo per celebrare l’Eucarestia in onore dei milioni di uomini,
donne e bambini immigrati italiani venuti in America alla ricerca di opportunità uniche che
condividiamo con orgoglio come nazione.

  Oggi, è con affetto e gratitudine che ricordiamo e ringraziamo gli uomini, le donne e i bambini che
coraggiosamente hanno corso un rischio, hanno lasciato tutto in Italia e si sono creati una vita, ben
oltre i loro sogni, in questa Città degli immigrati! Furono nuovamente rassicurati dalla confortante
presenza di Dio che loro conoscevano dentro se stessi e nella Sua Chiesa. Bravi!

  Quest’anno, di fronte al gravissimo Coronavirus e agli inauditi disordini sociali, dobbiamo
ampliare la nostra ottica e usare l’orgoglio per la nostra eredità e la nostra Fede per tendere la mano
oltre al nostro benessere, per mostrare rispetto per i nostri vicini bisognosi, e cioè chiunque, ci stia
“vicino”. Tanti non condividono il nostro patrimonio culturale o le nostre tradizioni religiose....ma
di fatto sono anche loro nostri “parenti”, perché sono figli e figlie dello stesso Padre in cielo. Proprio
perché abbiamo questo ricco patrimonio dobbiamo prontamente assistere e difendere quelli più
vulnerabili. Ricordatevi, che era per questo comune senso di giustizia e misericordia che i nostri
antenati sono venuti in America ed è quello che un Dio altruista si aspetta da noi! Questa è quello
che noi come cristiani facciamo!

  Mi sento privilegiato di condividere oggi con voi l’altare del Nostro Signore e Salvatore!

  Salutando voi e i vostri cari, mi confermo,

                                                          Fedelmente in Cristo,

                                                          Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan

A Reading from the Book of the Prophet Isaiah.                    Isaiah 55:1-3
Thus says the LORD:
All you who are thirsty, come to the water!
You who have no money, come, receive grain and eat;
Come, without paying and without cost, drink wine and milk!
Why spend your money for what is not bread;
    your wages for what fails to satisfy?
Heed me, and you shall eat well,
    you shall delight in rich fare.
Come to me heedfully, listen, that you may have life.
I will renew with you the everlasting covenant,
    the benefits assured to David.
The Word of the Lord.

A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark.                                  Mark 4: 35-41
On that day, as evening drew on, Jesus said to his disciples:
    “Let us cross to the other side.”
Leaving the crowd, they took Jesus with them in the boat just as he was.
And other boats were with him.
A violent squall came up and waves were breaking over the boat,
    so that it was already filling up.
Jesus was in the stern, asleep on a cushion.
They woke him and said to him,
    “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?”
He woke up,
    rebuked the wind,
    and said to the sea, “Quiet! Be still!”
The wind ceased and there was great calm.
Then he asked them, “Why are you terrified?
Do you not yet have faith?”
They were filled with great awe and said to one another,
    “Who then is this whom even wind and sea obey?”
The Gospel of the Lord.

distribute financial aid to educate children in need and pledge to extend ourselves in
perpetuating the philanthropic work that has been synonymous with our Foundation.
