Our second annual Saint Philip Parish Summer Barbecue has been scheduled for Sunday afternoon, August 24, in Conner Hall.
Once again, our expert parish cooks will be offering a generous combination of meats and side dishes and beverages. You’ll be able to dine with us in Father Conner Hall at Ascension – or order ‘take out’ for dinner at home.
Thanks to our parish volunteers and staff, this will be the perfect meal to celebrate the “end of summer” and the cookout season – without your cleaning your own grill.
Please plan to join us for this special parish event! Mark your calendar now. Information and a Parish Barbecue Order Form will be placed into the parish bulletin in the coming weeks!
