Looking forwards and
looking back
at St Mark’s …
THIS WEEK…
Last Week…
Thank you to all the volunteers
who helped to make the Christingles, mince pies, cheesy stars and mulled wine.
It was great teamwork and fun!
Our Carol Service with Christingles was a lovely occasion.
A chance to sing traditional Christmas Carols, hear the choir, listen to the Bible passages telling the timeless story, meeting friends old and new
and a chance to give money to deserving charities.
Because people give to St Mark’s ETS (Onlus),
we were able to give to Casa Marta, a childrens hospice in Florence,
and Progetto Arcobaleno, that works with those needing help with addictions, homelessness, language classes for immigrants and much more.
Thank you to Angelica Braccagni and Tullio D’Amora representing the two charitites,
to Mirko Rufilli representing the Municipal Administration,
to Emile our Musical Director, to the Choir, to Father Chris
and all who helped make this a special evening.
