The Hospitality Committee served the parish's annual Old Fashion Parish Supper on Saturday, November 5, 2011. As always, the committee did a superb job in organizing the event and treating parishioners to a memorable meal. Karen Flynn, the Hospitality Committee Chair, hosted the sold-out event; Fr. Reg McNeil led the attendees in saying grace before the meal.
