WOODBRIDGE, CT - Elizabeth Smolinski, one of the cantors at Our Lady of the Assumption Roman Catholic Church, has more than a beautiful voice.
Liz (Ortoleva) Smolinski, a visual arts teacher at Amity High School, recently completed a portrait of Blessed Michael J. McGivney for veneration in OLOA s Center Road church. On Oct. 31, 2020, Father Michael J. McGivney was beatified and declared Blessed in a Mass and Beatification ceremony at the Cathedral of St. Joseph, moving one step closer to becoming a saint.
In a week when the first COVID-19 vaccinations were administered in Massachusetts to front-line health care workers, there are questions over how the state plans to distribute extra doses of the vaccine to communities of color that have been battered by the pandemic.
Framingham and Milford are among those communities, as each has a sizable minority population that is experiencing skyrocketing COVID-19 infection rates.
Last week, Gov. Charlie Baker’s COVID-19 Vaccine Advisory Group announced plans for vaccine distribution, including an extra 20% supply to communities that suffered a disproportionate impact during the pandemic.
But there are questions about that extra supply, including how will it be calculated and who will get it.
