St. Joseph Table at St. Benedict Church

St. Benedict Church will be commemorating their Feast of St. Joseph, Patron Saint of workers and families, on Saturday, March 17^th, from 12:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Sunday, March 18th, from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., at the Parish Hall located at 1022 W.

The Feast will start on Saturday, March 17th at 12:00 PM, with the Holy Family, depicted by the Montebello youth and wearing garments common to those biblical times, seeking asylum and upon entering the Parish Hall they will take their place at the shrine and table, at which time the shrine, table and its contents will be blessed by St. Benedict's Pastor, Rev. Francisco Sandoval.  Open house will follow the noon ceremony and everyone attending will receive a free plate of pasta, with a salad and roll.
Traditional Italian foods, Italian sausage sandwiches, cannoli, and other desserts will also be available for purchase at nominal prices.  Also available will be homemade breads, cookies, bottles of wine, fresh fruits, vegetables, flowers, and various 1-gallon and 5-gallon nursery plants. 
 
The Italian tradition reaches out especially to the poor and hungry in our community.  On this special occasion, the St. Benedict’s Italian Catholic Federation (“ICF”) reaches out to the Business community for a donation to help them give a free pasta meal to everyone who comes to visit the Feast of St. Joseph’s Table.
This special celebration supports the parish, provides scholarships to graduating St. Benedict School students, college scholarships to graduating local high school students, monetary donations to vocations to help the education of young men training for the priesthood, Cooley’s Anemia programs at L.A. Children’s Hospital, and other worthwhile programs.
