Congratulations and job well done to all who made our first ever “Advent in Lights” drive thru event a huge success. Many hours of planning and preparation brought to life an evening filled with joy, wonder, and especially community-building with over 50 teen and adult volunteers. More than 250 cars carrying multiple passengers traveled near and far to journey through this unique experience. Special thanks to our committee members and creative talents: Wendy Demko, Laura Hitland, Carole Sanchez, Apryl Tomaino and Marie Waldron.
Thanks, would not be complete without acknowledging the incredible adults, middle school children, high school teens, and college student volunteers who brought so much energy and vitality. The parish grounds were truly filled with the spirit of the Advent season. We are most grateful to all those who made “Advent in Lights” possible through their dedication and willingness to give of their time and talent. Lastly, we thank Frank & Maria Gesualdo for sharing their farm animals, Sun High Orchards for use of their pony, Frank Tomaino and Adam Grisi for the sound system, Emma Baxter for photography and video recording, and Bob Sesko and the Environmental committee for the lighting. Special Thanks to Children’s Ministry, Lorraine Scandariato and Shannon Civetta, for this program.View Video
