Today, organizers of St. Aedan Parish Festival two weeks ago thanked volunteers by providing a nice breakfast after the church’s 10AM mass.

volunteers_serve_coffee_donuts_bagels Organizers served donuts, bagels, pastries and coffee at the vestibule of the church after the Eucharistic ceremony. Steve Kuban – a known Catholic singer – who led the choir at the mass, later joined several volunteers and parishioners.

Several Filipinos were in attendance such as AUDIO PROJECT DJ Elmer Karaan (and his family) who volunteers yearly by providing music and entertainment to the carnival/festival. Check out some photos that this blogger took using his phone:

Thank you organizers for the breakfast! ;)

Were you at this festival? St. Aedan Parish (in McGinley Square area of Jersey City) holds an annual festival where there are rides, music, food, raffles, and other activities. This year, the event started on September 18, 2008 and lasted for four days (September 21).

Along with other nationalities, different Filipino groups volunteered for the event. Like last year and the year before that, my friend Elmer Karaan was in-charge of the music. Couple for Christ members watched some booths one night, and the Buensuceso Family were all around.

Fr. Joe Astarita – the Parish Administrator – was happy with the turnout of the event. And based on the figure that he mentioned during one of his masses, this event will continue for next year.
