Parents' Night Out
This Friday, January 8 | 6:30-9:30pm 
 
Above: We had 10 children of the parish take part in our first Parent Night Out.
   The next Parent Night Out is this coming Friday, January 8 from 6:30-9:30pm.  The theme is
Winter Wonderland!  Everyone is invited to wear their cozy pajamas. 
     We will have popcorn, a movie, fun games, and a lot more! If you haven't already, please sign your child up using the link below.  All children ages 2 and up are welcome.  
     Our middle school youth have plan the events, and you can sign up as an EYC helper here. Support our mission trip fundraiser by dropping off your kids!We are offering a new way to pay towards your mission trip cost. If you are in EYC, you can volunteer for a Parent Night Out and receive $5 every time you do it. That adds up to over $35 over the course of the second half of the school year. Don't do it for the discount; do it just to be a service to our awesome community!

Annual Parish Meeting & Vestry Election
St-Columba-LogoThis Sunday, January 10 at 5:30 pm
 
     Our Annual All-Parish Meeting will take place at 5:30 pm on Sunday, January 10, 2016.   We'll begin with dinner (smoked Boston pork shoulder & all the trimmings, provided by the Knights of Columba) and then move into our annual parish meeting.  It's an exciting time in the life of the parish as we celebrate the blessings we've all shared in our parish and look into the coming year of new programs, mission opportunities, and growth.     
     During the annual meeting, we will take the opportunity to thank those who have served on vestry for the past three years and will rotate off upon the election of new vestry members.  Please join in thanking  Dale Humphries, Margie Hutson, Kendra West, and Linda Williams for their outstanding service and sharing of their time and talent in ministry leadership during these past three years. We extend a special thanks to Dale who has also served as our senior warden this past year.    
    >>> At 4pm, we will have our youth-led contemporary Mass (usually held on the first Sunday of every month, but we moved January's to the second Sunday due to the school Christmas break.  So come early for this wonderful witness of faith organized by our own parish youth.
