THE CELEBRATION OF ST. PATRICK

Please mark your calendars for the celebration of St. Patrick on July 15th. As you are aware, St. Patrick's Day was on March 17th. Since our patron saint's day is always during lent, I decided to observe this celebration during the summer. The festivities on July 15th will begin with our Sunday service, which will include a children's choir made up of students from the school, and a St. Patrick's Church and School picnic afterwards. We will have activities for the kids, food, and lots of fun. 

We will need some help organizing and planning for this event, so if would like to help let Fr. Ashley or Jessica know.
MEN's COFFEE GROUP

All men of the church are invited to enjoy coffee and fellowship every Thursday at 8:30AM at  Jett's Country Kitchen, 4760 Old Scenic Hwy, Zachary 658-8820.
