THE NEW OLGIATA CHURCH

Brick by brick, this time it really is going to happen.  On Saturday January 28th at 11 am, everyone is invited to the setting of the first stone of the Olgiata Church, named after the Apostles St Peter and Paul .  Don quirino, San Pancrazio's Parish Priest , is bringing a lot of bricks so that it will be the children and the teenagers who will set the first stones.  For years youngsters have been crying out for a meeting place.  The Church will serve a population of 10,000 people and will have classrooms for Catechism, a theatre which can hold up to 450 people, and a Church, as well as a home for three priests.
Live music and fire works will welcome this celebration on Saturday Janurry 28th and Rome Mayor Gianni Alemanno has ensured his presence.
