Thanks to all who volunteered, donated food, made monetary gifts, or attended our annual Thanksgiving Dinner. We served an estimated 217 people in Willett Hall for a delicious and festive community meal. Special thanks to Abi, Arielle, Parish Administrator Sarah Fitzpatrick, Mark, Custodian Jesse Kieffer, Bethany, Chef Phil Nacron, Custodian Violet Nowlan, Gwen, Holly, Brian, and the 50+ other volunteers who worked so hard to make this the biggest, best Thanksgiving Feast ever. Here’s what some of our guests had to say:

• “The best in town.”

• “A great place – positive fellowship.”
• “Welcoming with a warmth that makes you feel you belong.”
• “Wonderful, friendly, and welcoming parish staff and volunteers.”
