The founder of Santa Maria, Fr. Antonio Norman, always had a devotion to Santa Filomena. On Saturday, August 11, 2018, the present students, priests, sisters, workers, and local persons from around town held our annual celebration on our property dedicated to her honor. The memory of Santa Filomena and the memory of Fr. Antonio were celebrated with the Mass, the final day of the novena to Santa Filomena, music, food, smiles and wonderful memories. All that we have, we have received from another. We praise God for his goodness to us.
