Santa Lucia is an Italian Saint adopted by Salem's Swedish ancestors as an icon of self-sacrificial care for our neighbors.  As we live in a multinational community on the East Side of St. Cloud and desire to be in partnership with our neighbors, together bringing the light of Christ to the world. 

On the second Saturday of December at 7:00 a.m., we celebrate the Festival of Lights by carrying in the light and sharing sweetness with our neighborhoods.
