I am writing to share an important update about our Sunday Coffee & Donuts gatherings in the Church Hall.
As many of you know, our hall is currently unused for much of the week. To make better use of this space, I have signed a rental agreement with Magenta Dance Studio, who will be renting the hall from August 25, 2025 through August 30, 2026. This new partnership will help us share our parish facilities with the wider community while also supporting our parish mission.
Please note that while Coffee & Donuts will continue as usual after the 10:45a Mass, there will be some changes going forward. The majority of the hall, including the children’s room, will not be accessible during this time. Barriers will be in place to clearly mark the sections that will not be available.
I ask for your support in ensuring that everyone attending Coffee & Donuts respects the areas that are blocked off, honoring the setup that Magenta will have in place. Please also help by reminding and guiding the children each week so that they, too, understand and observe these boundaries.
I am excited for this new collaboration with Magenta Dance Studio, and I am equally grateful that our tradition of Coffee & Donuts can continue without interruption. Thank you in advance for your flexibility and understanding as we adjust to this new arrangement.
With gratitude and blessings, Fr. Jeff
***Please note: The Children's Liturgy location will also change effective 8/31. We will gather in the 3rd/4th grade classroom in the basement of the old rectory.
