Our aim is to carry out this mission through our strong tradition of faith and family, through a strong sacramental and liturgical life, through a total Catholic educational program, through a ministry to the social needs of the community and through evangelization.
Sunday, September 8 beginning at 10:30 am - 1:00 pm in the Holy Family Parish Hall.
It is amazing to see how many people come together to celebrate Ava & Jacob's lives and memory.
In the last 9 years, over $197,000 has been raised to endow the tuition scholarship to Holy Family School.
To date, 140 students have been recipients of tuition assistance from 75% of the funds raised. With an abundance of gratitude, we begin the countdown to this year's event. We are so grateful and blessed to have had the support of family, friends, Holy Family Church, School and our community, who have generously donated their time, talent and love to assure the success of the Ava and Jacob Saucier Memorial Scholarship in their honor. A jambalaya benefit will help to endow the scholarship. All proceeds will go toward the scholarship fund. Please help us celebrate Ava and Jacob’s lives and memory on Sunday, September 8, from 10:30-1:00 at the Holy Family Parish Hall. Tickets for the dinner are $8.00. Drinks and sweets will be available for purchase. You may eat-in or dine-out. There will also be a silent auction, sweet shop, face painting and a raffle for a cypress glider swing. Please consider purchasing tickets to benefit this scholarship fund.
GUIDE BOOK & DIRECTORY ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITY
We are in the process of updating our annual Guide Book & Directory for the church. This book will contain everything pertinent to our church: the various ministries, organizations, committees, activities, functions and events plus a complete directory of all members. This book is being provided and direct-mailed to each family at no cost to our church, and it is again being subsidized by local businesses that advertise. If you own or manage a business and would like to find out about advertising in our book, please call the Church Office.
Recent survey results by Guide Book Publishing show that 92.1% of families would rather patronize a Guide Book & Directory advertiser over a non-advertiser. It “will pay” to advertise in our new Guide Book & Directory.
KNOW THE ANGELS Make yourself familiar with the angels, and behold them frequently in spirit. Without being seen, they are present with you. —St. Francis de Sales
HELP OUR SCHOOL Just a reminder to everyone that Holy Family School will be collecting Community Coffee UPC labels as well as Box Tops for Cash again this year. Holy Family School receives a good bit of additional funding from both programs, so we would appreciate it, if you would collect them and send them to the front office at Holy Family School, Holy Family Church or drop them in the collection basket.
These are examples of what is being collected.
