Celebration Weekend at St. Al's
Save the dates of May 16 -18, 2008
All St. Al's School and Parish Alumni are invited back for celebration weekend May 16 - 18, 2008. We will be marking the transition of our 120-year old parish school to the new consolidated Catholic school of All Saints Academy. Come and walk the halls of our old school. Enjoy reminiscing with friends, teachers, priests, alumni, and parishioners. Join us and help launch the next era in our proud history at St. Alphonsus. All are welcome.
Celebration Weekend Volunteers: To make this weekend a success, we need volunteers (lots of volunteers) starting Thursday to decorate and right on through to Sunday afternoon after the parish picnic out on the lawn. If you are interested in volunteering, please call Maribeth Pickrel at 458-3226 (home) or 970-1581 (cell). This will be a great opportunity to get involved in the parish and also to get to know fellow parishioners. Hope to see you there!
