Bishop Giovanni Nerbini to preside over the Eucharistic celebration for the new parish priest of Figline

Bishop Giovanni Nerbini will preside over a Mass to welcome Marco Galgano as the new parish priest of Figline. The celebration is scheduled for Friday, September 25, at 9:00 p.m. at the Church of San Pietro. Vicar General Daniele Scaccini will concelebrate the liturgy alongside other priests.

Father Galgano succeeds Giuseppe Billi, who served as the parish priest since 1977 after working there as a parochial vicar starting in 1970. Father Billi has lived at the ecclesiastical college in Florence for the past year.

Father Galgano entered the Prato seminary in 2012 and was ordained a priest by Bishop Franco Agostinelli on December 17, 2017. Before this assignment, he served at the Santa Maria delle Carceri sanctuary, where he managed liturgical matters under the guidance of Carlo Stancari.
