🎉 Happy Birthday, Fr. Bob! 🎉

Whether he's sharing his wisdom, leading us in prayer, or occasionally reminding us how things are done "across the pond," Fr. Bob is a blessing to our parish family. We are grateful for his faithful priesthood, his love for Christ and His Church, and the many ways he helps us grow closer to the Lord.

Please join us in wishing Fr. Bob a very happy birthday and in praying that the Sacred Heart of Jesus continues to bless him with joy, good health, and abundant grace in the year ahead.

Happy Birthday, Fr. Bob! God save the priest!

Dear Parish Family and friends of St. Catharine,

It is with great disappointment that we announce the cancellation of the remainder of FunFest 2026. The safety and well-being of our parishioners and surrounding community must always remain our highest priority.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the countless volunteers who dedicated so much time, energy, and hard work to make FunFest possible. We know how much effort goes into planning and operating this beloved parish tradition, and we share in the disappointment of this decision.

We also apologize for any inconvenience or disturbance this situation may have caused our neighbors and the surrounding community.

While the festival grounds will be closed, the Silent Auction and 50/50 Raffle will remain open for online bidding through 8:00 p.m. on Saturday evening: https://stcatharine.com/funfest

Thank you for your understanding, support, and prayers.

Fr. Bob

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us!
Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us!
