Editorial Introduction

I would like to introduce myself, Dino Varricchio (member of the Italian Catholic Federation of North Brisbane) and Editor of Rintocchi, together with Carmela Bozzi, co-Editor (member of Com.It.Es QLD & NT and Director of the S. Alfio Choir), along with Padre Angelo Cagna, Scalabrinian (Chaplain of the Italian Catholic Community of Brisbane and Gold Coast), and Elio Morabito (Designer/Publisher of Rintocchi) who form as our editorial team and our contributor for this publication.

We are volunteers and we serve our Italian-Australian community in producing this wonderful publication titled Rintocchi.

Rintocchi started its life 38 years ago through passionate and dedicated members of the Italian Catholic Federation in Brisbane through the founding Section of North Brisbane and with support from the section of Aspley-Geebung.

Rintocchi operates as a registered business under the Italian Catholic Federation of North Brisbane who are registered under the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission.

Rintocchi is supported financially through our generous advertisers, and including our annual subscribers and donations received through various Italian-Australian Associations and many individuals who support this publication.

Here is some information on the publication.
