All Saints and All Souls Celebration
JOIN US FOR A FUN FAMILY EVENING to celebrate the Feasts of All Saints and All Souls! On Friday evening, October 28, join other parish families for pizza, games and prayer. We’ll meet at 6 p.m. in the school cafeteria for pizza, veggies and chips (free-will donation). We’ve planned some fun games - Saints’ Bingo, St. Peter’s Fishing Hole and more. To conclude, we’ll remember those in our family who have gone before us “marked with the sign of faith” and we’ll head into the cemetery with candles to pray for the beloved dead of our parish before heading home around 7:30.
