Mother/Child Dinner is a SUCCESS!
article submitted: 5-3-04
The men of the parish helped prepare a delicious meal for the Mother/Child dinner. The menu consisted of bread and butter, salad, lasagna, cheesecake and your choice of drink.

After the meal, the guests were treated to a drawing for all of the centerpieces, a funny "mom" reading by both Pastor Diehl and Pastor Thompson, and a fabulous musical performance by the "Barefoot Girls."
The night was very enjoyable!
