Thank you to everyone that donated toward the Angel Tree in December.
One more big thank you to everyone that helps with the funeral dinners! We get so many compliments from the area funeral homes on our hospitality and amount of volunteers! Your help does not go unnoticed!
Megan Brown Benefit coming up THIS SATURDAY, Jan 4 starting at 3:00 at Woods Edge Golf Course in Edgewood.
Peggy Schilling will be at the St. Patrick Parish Center from 8:00-10:30 that morning to take any donations over to Edgewood for the event. Thank you in advance for your donations and prayers for our fellow parishioner!
Megan was diagnosed with a Meningioma (a brain tumor that arises from membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord) about 7 years ago. She has been doing yearly scans that showed the tumor was stable until this past summer. Her last scan showed the tumor had grown which was consistent with her worsening symptoms that affected her daily life. Megan met with many different neurosurgeons who all said the tumor needed to be removed. Megan underwent surgery, and is continuing to recover.
If you have questions or would like to donate, please contact Jodi McCabe.

Thank you to the students from St. Patrick that were able to help at our Christmas Eve Mass. It is always a blessing to see the young people participating at Mass. Thank you all!
