Last Sunday (June 14th), my friends and I made our way to the Congrega San Vito di Ciminna clubhouse (7712 18th Ave.) in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn for the Festa di San Vito Martire. Blessed with beautiful weather, the procession wended its way through the neighborhood to Saint Dominic's Church. Before celebrating Mass in Italian with Father Martino, we listened to a short speech by young Maria Gambino about the life and martyrdom of San Vito.
After Mass, the celebration continued back at the clubhouse, where we enjoyed good company and a fantastic Barbecue. The evening concluded with caffè, dessert and an exciting raffle drawing.
