Corpus Christi Parish
On the evening of Monday, February 22, 2021 at approximately 6:30 in the evening, smoke detectors and fire Alarms started sounding in the rectory of Corpus Christi Parish ( Holy Rosary Shrine) on Essex Street in Lawrence, MA. Firefighters quickly arrived to find the rectory involved with heavy fire. When all was said and done more than 100 Firefighters from all over heroically fought to save the Parrish and prevent the fire from spreading to nearby buildings. The St. Alfio Society has always and will forever have a long lasting relationship with Corpus Christi Parish ( Holy Rosary Shrine). It made perfect sense to step up to the plate and help out.
The St. Alfio society decided to donate the total net proceeds of our 2021 10K raffle to the Corpus Christi Parish ( Holy Rosary Shrine).
