PARISH FESTIVAL – Save the date! The second Saturday in November, November 9th, will likely be the date for our Eastern European Food Festival. We need many volunteers to make it a success. Please reserve the date on your calendar.
KOLACHI BAKING DAY – We will have our next kolachi baking day in preparation for the fall festival tentatively on September 22nd. All are welcome to help roll and bake kolachi following Divine Liturgy. If you don’t know how to bake them, we will teach you.
CHILD EASTERN CATHOLIC FORMATION (ECF): William Bridges has the lead for this year’s ECF program and has put together a notional program. Please contact him if you would like your children to attend and/or if you are interested in teaching a particular age group. The first few lessons will be held after Divine Liturgy in the pews. We have a large variety of ages which will require the kids to be broken into age groups. Any help is greatly appreciated.
