Put a Little Social

In Your Distancing!

We are planning and praying for a great in-person event—please mark your calendars and plan to join us! Fall Festival packets for each family, including raffle tickets and volunteer group assignments, are available in the gathering space of the church. Please pick yours up when you are able, and feel free to pick packets up for your family members who may not yet be returning to Mass. The packet includes more detailed information about volunteer needs and changes to this year's Grand Raffle.

Please pray this short prayer for the Festival
