Capital Campaign Thanksgiving Celebration To celebrate the enormous success of our Capital Campaign, "An Investment in Faith, Family and the Future" and to thank our supporters, the Capital Campaign Committee has planned a special reception. We invite you and your family to attend a celebratory reception on Sunday, November 22, at 9:00 a.m. in Driscoll Parish Center. During this time of fellowship, we will acknowledge everyone who gave prayers, financial contributions and donated their time and their talents to this successful campaign. We will serve coffee, juice and donuts. At each of the Masses on Saturday, November 21 and Sunday, November 22, a volunteer from the Capital Campaign Committee will speak briefly to the congregation to thank them and to provide a progress report on both the capital improvements and the finances. Fr. Jack will have a special blessing for the church front doors, which are being refinished. Let's gather as a parish community to celebrate our blessings. Please, join us on November 22nd. Questions? Call Jodi Edgar Reinhardt at 233-3329 or Kathy Schaefer at 397-1457.
