Two paintings, one of St. Philip Neri and the other of Bl. John Henry Newman, now adorn Old St. Mary’s, the Oratory Church. St. Philip Neri is the sixteenth century founder of the Congregation of the Oratory, while Bl. John Henry Newman is the famous nineteenth century Anglican convert to the Faith and founder of the Congregation in the English Speaking world.

St. Philip Neri, Pray for Us! Bl. John Henry Newman, Pray for Us!

On behalf of the Fathers and Brothers of the Cincinnati Oratory, we wish each of you a very blessed and happy Easter! May the Risen Lord, who has conquered sin and death, bring to each of us much joy, peace, and grace.

Christ is Risen! Indeed He is Risen!
