St. Patricia Parish & School Festival of Lights 2016

St. Patricia Annual Festival of Lights celebrated on the first Friday each December was again enjoyed by hundreds in the parish, school and local community. A family event for all ages appreciating the beautiful child wonder of the season.

Pastor Fr. Marc Pasciak gave a special blessing on the Holy Family Crèche and all families for health, joy and a safe holidays remembering the reason for the season. Santa Claus and Fr. Marc joined St. Patricia’s Children Choir singing out loud favorite Christmas classics.

Santa’s Holiday Suite welcomed families to visit while little ones told Santa all their Christmas wishes brought a magic to all. Parents and grandparents smiled looking on and remembering when they sat on Santa’s lap.

The Christmas Tree courtyard was decorated by each classroom who selected a theme creating personal ornaments with their teachers. Volunteers hung hundreds of lights throughout the courtyard, the Holy Name Society and Sertoma donated the trees, and school families brought homemade cookies and treats to share with hot chocolate.

St. Patricia Parish and School wishing you a beautiful holiday season and a blessed New Year in 2017!
