There will be a Pizza Party for all volunteers on Friday, September 23, 2022, at 6:30 PM.

This will be a great opportunity to get out and reconnect with our church family. There will be games, a Bags Tournament, and of course a Pig Roast.

We will have drinks to go along with our roast.

Our goal is for everyone to come out and have some fun.

Any additional funds will be donated back to the Blue envelope fund.

If you plan on attending, please RSVP here so we can get an estimate of our necessary provisions.

Join the Knights of Columbus on Sunday, August 14 from 8:30am to 12:30pm for a blood drive in the basement of the church.  Attend Mass first and then give blood!

Please sign up on-line by clicking HERE.

Please make sure to eat a healthy meal and drink plenty of water before donating.  Also, bring a photo ID to the blood drive.

Donors will also receive a Versiti water bottle and stickers, while supplies last.

Donate blood and help us reach our goal to collect 14 donations to help supply 87 local hospitals!

Thank you to all our loyal, life-saving blood donors!
