Peace and blessings to all Parishioners!
Thanks to all of you who supported our 2014 Fest “Reach Out for Outreach”. Special thanks to those of you who generously gave of your time, talents and treasures with volunteer hours setting up, working events , tearing down, providing
gifts for the silent and live auctions, preparing and serving of dinner, purchase of raffle and dinner tickets and your
prayers for the success of this endeavor. Our parish community comes together each year to support our Outreach
ministry with this extraordinary effort to raise funds to help those in need in our wider community of metropolitan Grapevine/Southlake. Through your generosity we are able to carry out the intent of Our Lord’s directives in the Gospels to
care for those less fortunate by providing food, clothing, rent assistance, medical assistance, counseling, necessities for
daily living and care for children. As good citizens of our community through the Fest we also provide donations to the
Grapevine Shield Foundation and the City Animal Shelter. The Foundation provides financial support for Grapevine
police officers or firefighters who are injured or killed in the line of duty. This Foundation provides immediate support
and help with expenses that insurance or benefits will not cover and scholarships to the children of local police officers
and firefighters.

Family Rosary—“Men of our Catholic community…Our children
need the example of Christian values from honorable virtuous
men… Men, as fathers and husbands, you are called to love your
children, spend time with them and teach them about what is truly
important in life. Likewise, you are called to love your wives without reservation, to stand with them in their work and never take for granted the critical role they play in the raising of your children… So, let us raise our voices
in humble supplication to the Blessed Virgin Mary that she may show us
her son and our Savior, Jesus Christ. Let’s be men who pray the Rosary."
