We have an exciting announcement! On Sunday, October 11, 2026, The Italian Connection will be hosting Fort Wayne's first ever Italian Street Festival!

This event will celebrate our faith, family, and Italian heritage. Hours are from 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM with our free kids corner open from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Wear your best leisure suit and enter to win a dinner party for 4! Singing and dancing all day, and a special Holy Family procession and blessing will take place at 5:00 PM.

25 years later, there is an entire generation that doesn't remember this day. For those of us who do remember what we saw and how how we felt on September 11, 2001, it is our responsibility to teach our children. We cannot whitewash what happened that day, or what happened to the soldiers in the months and years after, or the thousands of people who suffered and died from 9/11 illnesses. Just as we have an obligation to raise our children in faith and love, we have an obligation to teach our children the good and bad of history. On this solemn anniversary, we remember.
