THE BEAUTY, RECONCILIATION, HOPE AND PROMISE
OF OUR CATHOLIC FAITH IN CHURCH
In these difficult times, it is when you go to church that you know you are home. When all the bad, difficult, unhappy and tragic things happening in our world and around us are silenced by the walls of our church, we are given hope, love, comfort and understanding. It is when you go to church that you gain your strength to go forward to meet your goals, challenges, solve your problems and believe in the healing strength and love of our Lord.
Take this strength of faith and prayer given to you each Sunday at mass and keep it within your heart and soul until you return to Church to resume your faith and devotion to our Lord and know...he is always with you.
God Bless You!

Joshua Egan
Charity Dinner
"Dancing through the Decades!"
*** NEW DATE***
Due to unforeseen complications our original date was postponed. Here are the new event details.
_______________________________
Join us for a fundraiser dinner to support the Egan family.
You may recognize the name Joshua Egan. We have been praying for him in our parish intentions for several months now. This little boy is the 4th child of John and Gail Egan. He was born on December 31st, 2022, and soon after birth, he faced a series of difficult medical complications. He has been in the NICU since birth and is now at CHOP (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia). The Egan family are wonderful members of our parish family, and if you don't know them personally, you probably have seen their smiling faces in the pews and at parish events. Joshua's situation is serious, but with God's grace and the support of family and friends, the Egan’s are staying strong.

6:00 – 7:00 Dinner
7:00 – 7:30 Tricky Tray drawings
7:30 – 9:00 Music and Dancing
