Family Faith Night

We had quite the hoedown on March 26 in the Parish Hall--great food, fun games and lots of learning happening! Yee haw!
Here are some resources for you to use at home to keep the fun and learning going!

We invite everyone in our parish to join us for Family Faith Nights!  Offered regularly from October through June, these evenings are a chance to grow closer together as a parish family and learn more about our Catholic faith.  Each night includes interactive displays, games, crafts, activities and lots of fun learning!  We'll begin with a potluck dinner: each FFN has a special potluck theme.
 

* Enjoy a potluck dinner starting at 6:00pm after Saturday Vigil Mass (Mass is at 5:00pm, you can drop off dishes in the Parish Hall before Mass if you wish)
* Gather for an opening message including prayer and the introduction of our special theme at 6:30pm
* Participate in a wide variety of games, crafts and activities while learning about our Catholic faith (starting around 7pm)
* Closing message at 7:30pm will include prayer, wrap up and prize drawing.  You can continue to participate in activities until 8:00 if you wish.
* All parishioners are invited to attend: families with children of any age, singles, couples, elderly, young adults.  All are welcome!
