As you know, St. Blaise is associated with the custom of blessing throats. The words of the blessing are :
“Through the intercession of Saint Blaise, bishop and martyr, may God deliver you from every disease of the
throat and from every other illness; in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.”
Blessing of throats will take place after the 7 am and 5 pm Masses on Thursday, February 3. Blessing of throats will also be offered after the 4 pm Saturday, February 5, and the 7:30 am, 9:00 am, 10:30 am, and the Noon Masses on Sunday, February 6.
