DINING WITH DIGNITY RECAP

On Saturday, March 8th, our Outreach Committee prepared 50 wonderful means of Pulled Port sandwich, macaroni and cheese, applesauce and a brownie! These meals were transported to Eddie Vicker's Park where 48 of our fellow St. Augustine neighbors were provided a yummy dinner. Thank you to all of you who cooked, assembled and transported these dinners and made the day a wonder success!! Hugs to Stan Grisnik, Audrey Larrow, Annie DeBauche, Joanne Palarine, Fr. John Palarine, Missy Paul and Diana Dreher. St. Patrick's could not do what we do without you!

BIBLE STUDY EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 10AM


Yesterday, we went through the Planning For the Journey Home booklet and looked at what was provided and why this type of planning is needed for helping our loved ones make those plans once we are no longer here. Many things we hadn't considered and this booklet is going to help so many people. If you would like a copy, please see Lori S. or Debbie K.


Next Wednesday, March 19th, we will be moving on to an instructional Eucharist, Part One.

March 26th will be Part Two of the Instructional Eucharist, April 2nd will be Stump the Rector day and the final session on April 9th will be all about a Seder Meal.


These programs are offered every Wednesday, both at 10am and again at 6:30pm! Make plans to join us!

MEN'S NIGHT RETURNS


Join the men of St. Patrick's on Thursday, March 20th, at 6pm for an evening of breaking bread and fellowship. Bring what you'd like to eat for dinner, as well as the beverage of your choice, and we will enjoy a lively conversation about life and the Lord.
