Fellowship Opportunities

Baristas serve coffee or other refreshments in the church Narthex after Masses one weekend a month.  This gives our parishioners time to socialize a bit and to check out the displays in the Narthex.  It is also a great opportunity to meet other parishioners and to welcome the new.  A brief training is required.      

Time:  Baristas serve on a rotating schedule after Masses normally the weekend of the second Sunday of each month.

SIGN-UP FOR OUR NEXT EVENT!


We exist for the sole purpose of learning one another’s names—as we break bread together.  All we ask is you tell us your name!
 
Time:  Six months out of the year we meet in each other’s homes for dinner, brunch—or sometimes just for appetizers and dessert.  Twice a year we meet as a large group where all newcomers—and folks who haven’t yet discovered Supper Club—are invited to join us. You come as often as it suits you. All you have to do is show up with whatever the host asks you to bring.  And you’ll likely meet somebody you didn’t know before.
 
Gifts and talents:  If you are an adult, if you have a name, if you have a sense of humor—and if you would like to know more people, you are then qualified! Cooking skills are not required. If you have room to host people in your home, that is great, but also not required.  It is never about the food or location; it is always about the fellowship. This is a great way to get to know your fellow parishioners and truly become a part of a growing community.

Young at Heart is made up of senior members of the parish who come together for fellowship, food, entertainment, and enrichment. The group has programs that can be entertaining as well as informative. The past programs have had authors, a Metro Councilman, priests, policemen, movies, doctors, storytellers, and many more. But most of all we come together to have fellowship with each other – to have fun and laugh. And of course, to enjoy good food and drink.
 
Times:  This group meets most months for a luncheon, dinner, or snacks in the Parish Center.  Times will vary

Gifts and talents:  This ministry is open to all parishioners 55 and over.  We have yearly dues of $15.00 per person to help cover some of the expenses such as speaker's fees, mailings, and refreshments.
