Sweeney celebrated Mass for Easter on April 9 at the Diocesan Shrine of St. John Paul II/Holy Rosary Parish in Passaic at 6 a.m. Historically, Holy Rosary has been home to a thriving Polish faith community.
That morning, the celebration began with an outdoor procession of the Blessed Sacrament around the church, which included images of Jesus. The Eucharistic celebration followed. Many members of the congregation wore colorful traditional Polish clothing.
