Getting involved and volunteering make for a strong, vibrant parish. St. Patrick Church has a wide variety of groups and ministries. These groups and ministries offer the opportunity to grow your relationship with God, to grow personally, and to help the parish grow, while serving God, the parish, and others. There is a group or ministry for everyone to share their talents, so please get involved!
Sponsored by the parish, and its sole purpose is to raise discretionary money in an enjoyable way for its members. The 300 Club is open to everyone, and all you need is a ticket. Only 300 tickets will be sold, and cost $50.00 each. Your ticket is your entry into the monthly drawing which takes place throughout the year, during the months of January through November on the 1st Saturday of each month. Three tickets will be drawn each month for the $100.00 monthly prizes. Each winner's ticket will be placed back into the drum for future drawings. Your ticket is also your price of admission to the annual Christmas party in December, where the Grand Prize drawing is held for prizes of $1,000, $500, and $300, are drawn. For more info, contact the Parish Office.
