It’s not every day that New York’s most famous house of worship gets a glow-up.

But this fall, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the 146-year-old Gothic Revival landmark on Fifth Avenue, will unveil its largest commissioned artwork since the cathedral first opened. And yes, it’s a showstopper.

Cardinal Timothy Dolan announced that Brooklyn-based artist Adam Cvijanovic has been tapped to create a monumental mural that stretches 25 feet high and wraps around the cathedral’s entrance vestibule. Titled What’s So Funny About Peace, Love and Understanding (Elvis Costello fans, take note), the work will be officially dedicated during Mass on Sunday, September 21.

TRAGIC LOSS IN CRANDALL‼️

👉Crandall, Texas - What should’ve been a week of celebration has turned into heartbreak for one North Texas family. Julian Gilbert, a beloved Crandall High School senior and soccer player, collapsed during a workout on July 25 — just days before his 17th birthday.

Julian had been exercising with friends at his home gym when he suddenly started seeing spots… then collapsed, hitting his head. His father performed CPR until help arrived, but despite being airlifted to the hospital, Julian never recovered. Doctors told the family his brain stem had herniated — and once that happened, the functions of life could no longer continue.

Julian had no known health issues. His family is now waiting for autopsy results to find out what caused this tragedy.

Even in death, Julian gave life — he was an organ donor. His family says that’s exactly who he was: caring, loving, and always giving. Gold ribbons now hang across the city in his honor, and T-shirts are being sold to help support his family.

A candlelight vigil will be held Wednesday night at his home. His celebration of life will be Aug. 16 at Central Baptist Church in Crandall, 12–1:30 p.m. The public is invited and asked to wear gold — his favorite color.

“Grief is not a disorder, a disease or a sign of weakness. It is an emotional, physical and spiritual necessity, the price you pay for love. The only cure for grief is to grieve.” - Earl Grollman
What emotions do you feel from your grief? Don’t let anyone lead you to think that there is a timeline or any organization to grief. Sometimes grief feels like fear, other times like anxiety, many times sadness, and even it feels like bittersweet moments in the present.
