| Thank you to this month's volunteers |
For the second month in a row, members of the Constantinian Auxiliary joined the Knights and Dames of the Order to prepare and distribute food to the homeless in Chinatown and Two Bridges, New York. Meeting at the Church of the Transfiguration (29 Mott St.) Thursday evening, volunteers prepared 20 care packages replete with toiletries and ready to eat food, including containers of freshly cooked penne marinara generously donated by our dear friends at Caffé Napoli (191 Hestor Street) in Little Italy.
Once again, we want to thank Antonio, Anna and Konstantinos Mavrianos-Cesare for their hard work and dedication. You are without a doubt the heart and soul of the operation. Thank you Raymond Guarini of Italian Enclaves, my consorella Dama Rosanna Minervini, and Louis Fontana of Caffé Napoli for your continued assistance. Your heartfelt generosity and selflessness is greatly appreciated. And as always, special thanks to Pastor Lo for your support and blessings. It is an honor to serve with such an outstanding group of people. God Bless you all. IHSV
The next walk will be on Thursday, December 6th—St. Nicholas Day—at 7:00 PM. In addition to ready to eat foodstuff and daily necessities, we’re are asking volunteers to donate hats and scarves for the looming cold weather. Anyone interested in supporting this charitable endeavor can contact Cav. John Napoli at jnapoli@smocsg.com or call Anna Mavrianos-Cesare at 917-592-4181.
