Processione di Sant' Agrippina Di Mineo

The procession of the Statue of Saint Agrippina.

Twenty men will carry the one-ton statue of Saint Agrippina di Mineo for several hours around the North End. The procession would stop frequently to give on devotes a chance to pin dollar bills and sometimes checks on the statue. At the sound of a hand bell, the men would carry the statue and yell "Viva Agrippina!" 

O Dio, tu hai concesso a Sant'Agrippina la grazia di unire al fiore della verginitá la palma del martirio; concedi anche a noi per sua intercessione di vincere le passioni della carne e le insidie del mondo, per arrivare ai gaudi eterni. Per Cristo Nostro Signore. Amen.

Oh God, you have granted to Saint Agrippina the grace to unite the palm of martyrdom to the flower of virginity. Also, you grant us her help to overcome the passions of the flesh and the snares of the world to arrive at the joys eternal. For Christ Our Lord. Amen.
