St. Edward’s Fundraising: October 2017

administrator

Our final week before our big event is here!  Purchase tickets for a chance to win one of our wonderful baskets!  Tickets are 6/$5 or $1/each.

Also, consider taking a Silent Auction bidding number to bid on one of the four fabulous items we have to offer:  2 vacation rentals, a gourmet dinner, and a Lancaster Barnstormers Luxury Box for one evening next season.

And, saving the best for last is our wonderful evening on October 28th from 4:30 – 6:30 PM.  This year, St. Edward’s has created a fabulous “Supper Club” for all to enjoy. As you walk up the front entrance lined with luminaria, you will enter Edwardo’s Supper Club.  Imagine the wonderful jazz and standard tunes played by our wonderful musician, Doug LaSala, while you dine on a quintessential Italian menu.  Be entertained and delighted by the tableside magic of Joe Holwager.. . . and be ready to laugh with our headliner entertainment, the renowned Teresa Mastrobuono.  It’s all to benefit the ministry of St. Edward’s and to enjoy the fellowship of our parish family.  Of course, you will still have time to buy tickets and make bids throughout the evening until 6:00 PM when we will draw the winners.  So. . . help us reach our goal of $4,000 and keep buying your auction tickets between now and the 28th! 

What?  Haven’t bought your Supper Club tickets yet?!?   

You will not want to miss what will be a night of fun, frivolity, and fantastic fellowship!  Don’t miss out!  Don’t wait to hear about it on Sunday, the 29th!  We hope to see you there!    

Ascultation Brass this Sunday!

administrator
We have a suggestion that will ensure you’ll have an absolutely fabulous time this Sunday afternoon.  After church, go out for a leisurely lunch.  Then return to the church by 2:45 to get a good seat for a wonderful and varied concert of brass music. The concert starts at 3:00 p.m.   If you look closely at the musicians, you might know one or two, for they are all Physicians! They perform beautifully and have selected a terrific program.   A Sousa march, a rendition of Freddie Mercury’s “Bohemian Rhapsody”, Leroy Anderson’s “A Trumpeter’s Lullaby” and even the “Beer Barrel Polka”.  A few famous classics and some Broadway tunes round out the program. You will have a terrific time and be able to drive home before dark!  Please don’t stay home, hear wonderful reviews from your friends on Monday, and have to say, “I wish I had gone.”  Don’t be disappointed.  Come, enjoy, meet your doctor (?) and maybe go out for ice cream afterwards.   Ascultation Brass is coming to St. Edward’s church.  Be there.  You’ll thank us for reminding you!

The Feast of St. Francis of Assisi – October 7, 2017

administrator
The Feast of St. Francis of Assisi occurs on Wednesday 4th October. St. Francis is revered for the special relationship he had with all of God’s creation, but especially all of God’s creatures. In honor of St. Francis, there will be a service of Blessing of the Animals at 4:30pm on Saturday 7th October in the parking lot of the church, or in the case of inclement weather, the parish hall. Bring your pets, or photographs of them, for a special blessing; including pets past and present.
