Bouquet of gratitude for the hard work, time and devotion of Carmencita Quiroga, her Divino Nino JESUS prayer group, Fr Eddie and the committee of great cooks for raising more than $2000 on Saturday, Nov. 6 to purchase liturgical vestments and accessories for celebrating Mass. The team continues to collect monetary donations until the end of November from those who could help complete the cause.
Kudos to Dee Vance-Micallef (Pastoral Council)and her sister Charlotte for organizing the SJV Girl Scouts providing games for the children; Phyllis Silva (Community Life Commission) and her Youth group providing face painting and decal tattoos for the children; Alice and husband Stan for the music, karaoke and line dancing; Becky and Bob Stegman's heavy arm work, Patti and Gina Sebastian (Worship Commission) for assisting Carmencita. The scrumptious food included pozole, plato criollo, barbacoa, chicken, tamales, tostadas, salad, horchata and hot dogs for the kids. Participants enjoyed the auction and raffle gifts.
The left over chicken and rice were offered to the attendees of the 5:15 and 7 PM Masses on Saturday. Look forward to the next Gran Kermese tentatively planned for the weekend of March 12.
