St. Patrick’s Luncheon

Events, Parish Life /

On Sunday, March 15th, we hosted a St. Patrick’s Luncheon. We enjoyed music and a menu prepared by David and Ed Obssuth, as well as their helpers in the kitchen. The meal consisted of corned beef, cabbage, baked chicken, a variety of vegetables, assorted breads, Irish soda bread, and delicious homemade desserts. We thank those who decorated the hall, served, and cleaned after the event. We enjoyed the drawing of the in-house 50/50 and basket of cheer, as well as the “green surprise gifts” game. We thank everyone for coming to our annual celebration. St. Patrick—bishop, great missionary, and patron of Ireland—pray for us!

The youth read the Holy Scriptures, and sang together with participants of the Mass the Silent Night with lighted candles and well received Feliza Navidad. We thank the youth, parents, School of Christian Living teachers, Ms. Natalie and Mr. Paul and all who helped to celebrate the Birth of Jesus in such a joyful and meaningful way.

The pictures of individuals and families will be taken on Monday,April 13th. Based on the number of parishioners taking pictures we may have a second day. This directory will not be complete without you.
