WEBSTER — A few hundred people filled the pews of St. Joseph’s Basilica to celebrate its 125th Anniversary last weekend. Among them were a long line of priests current and retired, including Bishop Robert McManus, Archbishop Zygmunt Zimowski from the Vatican, two retired bishops, and four monsignors including local rector Rev. Anthony Czarnecki. But most of the color came from the parishioners, as the Piast folk dance troupe turned out in traditional garb, Knights of Columbus members led the procession in their regalia, veterans and Boy Scouts turned out in uniform, a few nuns came in traditional habits, and several Catholic societies unfurled their banners to grace the dais. Afterward, some of the participants traveled to Auburn for dinner and reception honoring the visiting priests and the fact the church is the oldest Polish-American congregation in the U.S. It’s also one of the relatively few basilicas in the country, having been so named by Pope John Paul II in 1998.
