Commemorating Mary, Mother of God! Family Friendly light hors d’oeuvres and desserts cold beverages, wine and coffee bar Tickets are limited and must be purchased in advance! Imagine a scene from Dickens' A Christmas Carol ... "Near to the winter fire sat a beautiful young girl, so like that last that Scrooge believed it was the same, until he saw her, now a comely matron, sitting opposite her daughter. The noise in this room was perfectly tumultuous, for there were more children there than Scrooge in his agitated state of mind could count; and, unlike the celebrated herd in the poem, they were not forty children conducting themselves like one, but every child was conducting itself like forty. The consequences were uproarious beyond belief; but no one seemed to care; on the contrary, the mother and daughter laughed heartily, and enjoyed it very much; and the latter, soon beginning to mingle in the sports, got pillaged by the young brigands most ruthlessly. What would I not have given to be one of them!" Imagine a room such as this and being able to take part in the joy of life. A dance-floor filled with young and old as families mingle on the perimeter. Live music floats around the room as the community gathers for a time of festive joy, the warmth of food and friendship chasing away the bitter cold—the picture above becomes a reality where, unlike Ebeneezer Scrooge, you can participate. We invite you to take part in this celebration and enjoy a pleasant evening of fellowship and deeply Catholic community. There will be live music, dancing, dessert, merriment, and more!
