2nd Rome Update

Kitrael went to Rome to meet with Vatican and Jubilee leaders as well as leaders of the special needs community.  Over there we got to meet with Don Francesco Scalzotto and Frederico of the Dicastery of Evangelization and Sister Veronica Donatello, Director of Pastoral Care of Persons with Disabilities.  We were also blessed to meet with Sister Helen Alford and her lovely community of nuns.  Sister Helen Alford was tapped by Pope Francis to be the Dean of the Social Sciences at Pontifical University of St Thomas Aquinas in Rome, Italy.  The Vatican re-affirmed its commitment to having Hearts For Music perform on April 29, 2025 and will be adding to our ensemble 12 Italian disabled/special needs children or adults.  So now we have for the first time ever, a multi-national, multi-ethnic, multi-disability music ensemble being prepared to perform next year!
