Between teaching religious studies to high school students and heading up the summer street patrol out of his parish, Lucio has found ways to live out his faith.

His journey is a winding one filled with the miraculous, which he takes time to share with us.

If you're in the Greater Toronto Area and are interested in being a part of the Summer Street Patrol, you can contact Lucio at inmylife@rogers.com

What is Summer Street Patrol?

Summer Street Patrol is a weekly volunteer program to feed the poor and homeless of downtown Toronto. The initiative, which was started by its organizer, Lucio Abbruzzese, in 1995 has run for over 25 years now out of St. Patrick's Parish in Toronto.

A patrol would commonly consists of a group of 20 to 40 youth and adults. Volunteers of the now multi-parish effort meet each Wednesday evening on the church steps of St. Patrick's during the months of July and August, bringing with them food and care packages for distribution.

The volunteers would first gather for a brief orientation before breaking off in teams for the patrol. They head out to walk through the downtown core to distribute the goods to the homeless, searching for those who could use a meal and a smile.Each patrol could last from 2-3 hours.

To see the street patrol in action, check out the Salt and Light segment that @saltandlightmedia made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7a93_IZyTrc
