Monsignor Edgardo Pan cordially invites everyone to participate in our NEW 25th anniversary Parish Photo Album. Our last album was produced over 12 years ago when we moved into our new church building. The album will highlight church life and activities, history of our parish and all of you who make this a wonderful community to be part of!!! Close to 1000 households participated and this was an outstanding community builder and helped each of us get to know one another much better. Every household who has their portrait taken will receive a complimentary copy of the parish album and a complimentary 8 x 10 family portrait (there is no cost for participating). This project is open to all households, young and old, with children, singles and couples. We really appreciate your support of this project through your participation. This photography event will be held at our parish, by appointment. Please schedule your appointment either by going to our website and booking your appointment online or after Mass in the Parish Office.
