Holy Family embarked on a magical journey as students uncovered the Gospel at Hogwarts! This year’s FREE children’s ministry event on Saturday, January 20th from 6-8 PM took students on an adventure to discover the signs and symbols of Discipleship. Through magical activities and experiences, students learned four bible stories and the ways in which signs and symbols have led (and will lead) us through our lives. For more information about this magical tradition, please contact Children’s Ministry Director Jolene Johnston.

Thank you to all who attended or supported the first Trivia Night Fundraiser at HFEC! It was a fun night showing off knowledge, enjoying each other’s company, and raising money to support Holy Family’s church, ministries, and mission work. A special thanks to Kelly O, Jolene Johnston, Ben and Bethany Paden, Jon Manuszak, Chris Hamon, and Fr. Bruce Gray for all of the help before, after, and during the event to make sure all went well. It couldn’t happen without you! A special thanks also goes to Joe and Barb Spangler for the donation of a grill that was used as a grand prize in the Lucky Balloon game. Their donation helped to raise an additional $800 for the church! Hopefully everyone had a good time and will join in for a second annual Trivia Night again next year.
