You are cordially invited to a special parish gathering focused on Your Catholic Retirement™ this Thursday, October 8 at 7:00 p.m. in Kulp Hall.

Hosted by The Catholic Foundation, this meaningful evening will feature Father Jeff, Father Brown, and estate attorney Tom Schmitt, who will lead discussions on Catholic funeral traditions, estate planning, and preparing for retirement in a way that honors your faith.

• Ensure your estate plan reflects your values and wishes
• Prepare for the future with greater confidence and peace of mind

It is never too early to begin planning. Thoughtful preparation can bring peace of mind to you and your loved ones, knowing that your wishes are clearly expressed and your faith remains at the heart of your plans.

All are welcome! Appetizers and refreshments will be provided. We hope you will join us for an evening of meaningful conversation, practical guidance, and fellowship.

This one felt special — and we get to do it all again tonight! 🎪🎸🍺

Thank you to everyone that came out and helped us to celebrate one of the best Festival nights in recent memory. The weather was perfect, the beers were cold, the sausage sandwiches were savory, and the music was grooving all night long. We hope you'll join us again tonight when we kick things off at 5PM. See you there!
