Dear Parishioners, We have had a very successful Holiday Bazaar weekend in the Saint Anthony Parish Center. The attendance over this two day event was exceptional with many parishioners, friends and church bazaar fans coming to a very unique display of features. The major attractions were Mrs. Claus’ Attic and a beautiful display of 115 gift baskets along with attractive crafts, an assortment of toys, delicious foods and games for children, Pot of Gold and Money Tree raffles. The Sunday Breakfast with Santa was very well attended too. So many people too numerous to mention were responsible for making this event so exceptional. All the baskets were donated by parishioners. I especially want to thank: Maryann Pallotta for organizing this annual event and coordinating the Basket Raffle with her committee; Susan Crocenzi and members of the Abba-Ave Prayer Group for Mrs. Claus’ Attic; the Holy Name Society for running the kitchen and Breakfast with Santa; Michelle Ficocelli and our young volunteers from the CCD program; Cheryl Machado for organizing the Pastry Table; Deb Imondi and her volunteers for crafts and knitted items; Judy Fontes for organizing the Jewelry Display and many other dedicated volunteers who worked hard over the weekend. The mood was so festive! We will give a financial report when all the expenses are tabulated. Thanks again for your support! Frs. Ed and Stephano
