And....just like that...the 2025 Parish Picnic is all done.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of the support. This community is our home and we are grateful to be able to welcome you all to our campus for some food, fun, good music and fellowship. We hope and pray that we will see many of you more often; along the rest of the year at Mass or at our other functions. Most of all, we pray for the continued growth and success of our community and the safety of each and every member of this beautiful place we call home.

To our parishioners, friends and neighbors who volunteer to help us in the weeks before and certainly this week a simple thank you doesn't seem quite adequate. We love you. We appreciate you and are grateful for you.

Kudos to our picnic General Chair Tim Domagalski and the entire team of chairpersons and others who helped us have another successful picnic. Simply could not do it without all of you. ❤️

Last but not least... Thanks to Father Alfred, our weather chairman, for the great weather. We had a little water the first two days, but Sunday was perfect. ❤️

See you in about 363 days...😉
