The Cara to Cara Ministry is hosting a Welcoming Reception for new parishioners and for our new Parish Priests immediately after all Masses the weekend of September 26 and 27, 2015 in the Parish Hall at Saint Patrick Catholic Church.

All parishioners— whether you joined yesterday or have been a parishioner for years are invited to the Welcoming Reception with the new Parish Priests— Father Tom Lamanna, S.J., Father Jerry Graham, S.J., Father John Fuchs, S.J. 

Perfectly paired— it is Stewardship of Talent weekend at St. Pat’s.  Ministry leaders will be on hand to share information about the many ministries— more than 50 ministries which are active in parish and community life. Which ministry are you called to serve? Ministry leaders will be ready to answer your questions about their ministry or the parish Talent Card.

A wine and cheese social will follow immediately after Saturday night Vigil Mass on September 26.  A scrumptious breakfast will follow immediately after the 8:30 A.M. and the 10:30 A.M. Mass on Sunday, September 27.

After the Wecloming Reception, at 1 P.M. join parishioners and their friends and family for the live-streaming of the closing Mass of the World Meeting of Families on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia— from the comfort of the Parish Hall.  Visit the USCCB website for more information about other live-streaming events during Pope Francis’ visit.  In preparation for his visit learn some fun facts about the Pope of Mercy .

RSVP and invite your friends using the Facebook event invites for the Welcoming Reception hosted by Cara to Cara and do the same for the Live Streaming of the Closing Mass.
