Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Fat Sunday

Fat Sunday is this Sunday! Don't miss this Mardi Gras type party. Mardi Gras comes from the French and translates to "Fat Tuesday." Historically, rich food such as eggs, meat, oils and butter were strictly prohibited during the 40 days of Lent. It became customary to eat any of these foods before Lent so they would not spoil. This is where the Catholic tradition of Fat Tuesday originates. Don't miss this opportunity to get ready for Lent. After the 9:00 AM Mass in the Parish Hall. Enjoy our Fat Sunday party and Catholic tradition of rich foods with friends and family as it was meant to be. There will be plenty of yummy foods, happy music, kid's activities, and more!
