Feast of St. Joseph – Festa Italiana 2023!
March 18, 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm CDT
Celebrate the Italian way. A feast for everyone! Join us on Saturday, March 18 for the Second Annual Feast of St. Joseph.
The Feast of St. Joseph, which always falls in the middle of Lent, is especially commemorated and celebrated in Italy in general, and Sicily in particular, where St. Joseph has been long-regarded as the island’s Patron saint. It is there, among Sicilians, that the tradition of the “Tavola di San Giuseppe” or “St. Joseph’s Table” has its origins.
In honor of this tradition, we will celebrate with an Italian Feast and wash it down with wine and song.
And!!!, Every ticket purchased for Saturday, a ticket is automatically purchased for someone in need as we will feed the Women’s Shelter and The Danville Mission with an equally big celebration the very next day.
“If you can’t feed a hundred people, then just feed one.” – Mother Teresa
