Youth Sunday & Parish Cookout

Sunday, May 19

Last Day of Sunday School + Teacher Appreciation + Youth Ministry Celebration Sunday + Parish Luncheon

     Mark your calendars now for Youth Sunday!  On Sunday morning, May 18 at both our 9:00 and 11:15 Masses, we will give thanks for young people of our parish and our rapidly growing youth ministry program.  

     We will celebrate the success of another great year of Sunday school as we thank the teachers officially at the 11:15 Mass.  And at both the 9 and 11:15 Masses, teenagers will be serving as ushers, greeters, lectors, chalice bearers, and one of our seniors, Emma Siegfried, will be our preacher that morning.

     The entire day will conclude with a festive and delicious cookout at the talented hands of our Knights of Columba.  They will provide the main dish, and everyone is asked to bring a vegetable or side dish to share.  The cookout begins at 12:30pm.     Please plan to join us for the celebration and parish luncheon at 12:30pm as we rejoice in the growth of our Christian Education and Youth Ministries!  

>> Please note:  because the Knights of Columba will be busy at the grill for the parish lunch, there will NOT be a full breakfast on May 18.  Doughnuts, fruit, coffee and juice will be available throughout the morning, though.  

Dollars for Green

     We are continuing the sod project, began last year, to include the area between the building and the classrooms and also in front of the cross on the exterior east wall of the church, that you see everytime you enter the drive into St. Columba's.  We use these areas for special events and the new grass will improve the condition of these areas.  We are currently trying to raise $3,000 for the grass sod and ground preparation. Our financial deadline is Sunday, May 5th.

     Please consider what you can individually contribute toward a $300.00 pallet of sod. Every $1.00, $10.00, or $100.00 helps toward our goal of $3,000.00. Please make your donation to St. Columba's by cash or check, earmark your donation "Sod Project." Please support this special project as it is outside of our operating budget for this year.  We are excited about this project and continued improvements to the parish grounds as we move towards our 10th anniversary celebration this coming fall!

Many thanks to all those who contributed to the Buildings and Grounds "Dollars for Green" project this spring.Donations exceeded the $5,000 goal!  The preparation work has been completed and the sod will be installed Saturday morning, May 18.  Volunteers are needed to help lay the sod - if you can help for an hour or more, please join us Saturday, May 18 between 9am and 12noon.
