Join Father Byrd as he broaches the sensitive subject of patriotism in these complicated days and how we might best see our role as Catholics in our nation. He will consider the background that makes a Catholic perspective on US history unique while briefly exploring present ideas, political and philosophical, that challenge our culture. He will propose some solutions we might all use as we prepare for our nation’s Semiquincentennial in 2026.

We invite all families to join us on All Saints Day, November 1st, in Saint Joseph’s Hall from 4-6:30 pm for an All Saints Day Party. We will have a potluck dinner, games, prizes, and our time together will be all about the saints! We invite the children to dress up as their favorite saint, join us for food and fellowship in St. Joseph’s Hall, and attend 7pm Mass in your costumes. All of the games will be themed around a particular saint. If you’re able to host a Saint Station, please contact Leigh Anne Butrum.
Come to the Table is a chance to get to know one another better by sharing a meal. It is a way for the adult members of our church to meet other people in the church in an informal home setting.
How it works:
For each round of Come to the Table, groups are formed combining couples and singles for a meal at a host’s home. Group sizes are usually eight but can be 6 or 10 depending on what the hosts can accommodate. This size ensures that the group is large enough to meet new people and small enough for all to be involved in conversation.
Hosts will contact the people assigned to their group to arrange a date that works for all starting in April. Get togethers will be scheduled every other month.
Once a date is established, participants agree on what they will bring to the dinner. These dinners are not intended to be gourmet events, they are gatherings to get to know one another better so any level of culinary expertise is welcome!
How to get involved:
Getting involved is as easy as providing some simple information on the form below including whether you are willing to host. You can join as a single, a couple or a couple of friends who enjoy spending time together. Non-Catholic spouses or friends are absolutely a welcome part of these dinners.
