Fiesta for Favorito Results
Thank you to everyone who participated in the Fiesta for Favorito! Our goal was to share the story of our relationship with Santa Maria Magdalena through music, dancing, food and pictures. A fun time was had by all! We raised $12,178.75 for our partner parish in Cuba.
The vision of turning an old house into a chapel and planting sustainable gardens for the community in Favorito, Cuba, has opened the hearts and minds of parishioners from St. John’s and Santa Maria Magdalena alike. While we have supplied financial and moral support, the people of Favorito have opened their homes, shared their stories, and masterfully transformed a building with few tools.
Since 2012, over 60 parishioners have traveled to Favorito. We are honored to support Santa Maria Magdalena with building supplies, a water purification system, sewing machines, clothes, shoes and most importantly, our love. As with any ministry, we have received much more than we have given.
Favorito, Cuba
