The celebration of the Holy Ghost Society in Hudson on the occasion of their 50 anniversary was remarkable. A procession from St Michaels to the Hudson Portuguese Club was filled with tradition, religion, music and the culture of the Imperio Mariense from the Island of Santa Maria in the Azores. This feast has been taking place in Hudson since 1974 through the dedication of volunteers of the Santa Maria Holy Ghost Society and the group and the events strengthen the foundation of Portuguese Heritage in our town and Commonwealth.
