A Bay Ridge church lit up some trees for the start of Advent.
St. Anselm held their 12th Annual Tree Lighting on Saturday, Dec 2.
The church now has 113 trees that surround it, which were donated by families from the parish.
This year, students from Bay Ridge Catholic Academy also took part by selling cookies and hot chocolate to help restore the church’s bell tower.
They raised more than $1,000.
