About
Saint Martin's Day, historically observed on November 11, is a cherished tradition celebrating the spirit of giving and sharing, inspired by the selfless acts of Saint Martin of Tours, a remarkable Roman soldier, who transformed into a benevolent bishop in a French town. Children will have the opportunity to craft their very own personalized lanterns, which ignites a symbol of hope and generosity. As the sun begins to set, families will gather around a crackling campfire for a captivating story time.
