St Michael's CWL extends its heartfelt thanks to all the Immaculate Heart Parishioners who joined the German communi​​​​​ty after the 12:30 Mass on December 21 for its annual Glühwein gathering.

We deeply appreciate all the assistance we received from a number of them to make this event a resounding success: Victor Piccolo, Theresa Lazarus, Michelle & Pat Rondot, Lori & Eugene Bergamin, Pat Bergeron, and Monica Hack & daughter for their help in getting the Church Hall ready for this festive occasion, for assisting in the kitchen and for cleaning up afterwards; Marina Vadori and Mary Power for their welcome contributions to an extensive dessert table, and all the Vincentians, led by Pat Power, for bringing a truckload of material into the Church Hall, which ended up transforming it into a German Christmas Village, complete a Glühwein Stall, a moving (toy) holiday train, a market square clock with viewable gears, decorative wall hangings, and a popular Family Photo area.
