THE PROCESSION OF SAINT ROCCO

August 3, 2014 --  Sunday morning, an effigy of St. Rocco, the protector against plague and contagious diseases, is brought up 3rd Street in Glen Cove on the culminating day of  this year's St. Rocco's Feast.  As the three hour procession makes its way through the neighborhood, devotees sing songs, recite prayers, attach monetary offerings to the statue, and visit the sick and home-bound where blessings are offered with a relic of the Saint.   The festival, which began Tuesday, resumed later in the day and concluded that night.
