Dad's Day Breakfast

Friday, Nov. 22

Bishop Chatard Dad's Day Breakfast welcomes special guest Greg Mark as our featured speaker on Friday, Nov. 22. Greg was recently highlighted in the Archdiocesan newspaper, The Criterion . Greg will share the story of the near-death experience that left him blind at the age of 25 — an experience that changed his life and his faith.

Greg is a former BCHS parent. His daughter and son-in-law both work at BCHS. Daughter Allison Mayer serves as the Administrative Assistant to the principal's office and son-in-law Tyler Mayer serves as Executive Vice President.

Doors open at 6 a.m. Food lines open at 6:15 a.m. Speaker will begin at approximately 6:35 a.m. and the morning will conclude no later than 7:15 a.m. Cost is only $5 per person, payable at the door.

RSVPs are now closed. If you did not RSVP and would like to attend, please email Deacon Rick Wagner at rwagner@bishopchatard.org .
