Hamburger Night October 11 – to benefit LifeClinic

“We, the Holy Family Parish for over 130 years, have endeavored to uphold the teachings of Christ through the celebration of the Eucharist, outreach, and reflection of the Gospel. Our faith family strives to share the message of Jesus everyday.”
Starting the weekend of October 18 & 19 there will be a bin in the north entrance to donate candy and prizes (such as saint/holy stickers, holy cards, small saint/holy toys, etc.) for prizes for the games for the children. Please donate by October 30 as that is the date of the party.
Thank you for your generosity for the children!
We were blessed to have a relic of the True Cross available for veneration. “For by your Holy Cross, you have redeemed the world”
Also, many of our home-schooled children and families gathered as part of our Friday noon Mass recently with some activities after. “Let the children come to Me, and do not hinder them…”
