Annual Scandinavian Fest (THIS WEEKEND)

 

(Prior to serving at Annunciation, Fr. Dagfinn Magnus was pastor of the Norwegian Seaman's Church.) 

 

Friday through Sunday (Nov. 4-6) is the annual Scandinavian Festival at the Norwegian Seamen's Church, 1772 Prytania St. The food always includes open-faced sandwiches, cream cakes, cookies and much more. The Women's Auxiliary's Christmas Sale is a big part of the event, as is music. Hours are Friday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Saturday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Sunday 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The food sale ends Saturday; on Sunday, lunch and cakes are served after the 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Jazz Service. Enter at the corner of Prytania and Urania Sts.  (http://www.nola.com/food/index.ssf/2011/11/scandinavian_festival_is_this.html)
