Clear Blue Skies as Silkwood Comes Alive with 69th Annual Feast of the Three Saints Celebration STORY + PHOTOS MARIA GIRGENTI
THE chant of Viva Sant’Alfio and boom of daytime fireworks echoed throughout Silkwood on Sunday as thousands of devoted followers celebrated the 69th Feast of the Three Saints, Australia’s largest religious and cultural festival, and the small town came alive with the sights,
sounds and smells of the Sicilian heritage. This annual festival held on the first Sunday of May, unites two towns separated by around 15,000 kilometres of land and sea with a strong faith which knows no boundaries.
Father Bruno Carrera travelled from Melbourne to Silkwood for the first time to concelebrate the Mass with local parish priest Father Kerry Crowley and also participated in the procession of the statues.
