St. Gregory Barbarigo's Welcoming Committee is bringing back Guess Who's Coming to Dinner! Dinners will be hosted in individual homes the third Saturday of every month of January, February and March and a potluck in April. Each month you will be dining with different people. The host does not know who is coming for dinner, nor do the guests. We can always use hosts, so be sure when you sign up, mark which months you may be able to accommodate guests and possibly be a host. All are encouraged to sign up even if you are unable to host. Hosting is not required in order to participate.
