The international dance groups will be dancing in the Church hall plus we will be having a bake sale. If you would like to donate baked goods please drop them off at the Parish office by Friday, August 15th. You could also drop off baked goods before or after Mass on that Sunday at St. Stephen. 

We will also be serving food in the air conditioned church basement from 12 noon-until we sell out. The menu will be announced soon.
