support of God’s work in our parish
community. Let’s increase this
participation to 100%.

delighted to have you join our
parish family! Registration forms are

Just In Time For Christmas Gifts
(Great for Individual and Corporate Gifts)
From Dis and Dat to Gumbo Ya Ya is the
theme of the 2016 Mardi Gras Ball.
Gumbo Ya Ya means a blend of many to
make one and that is how gumbo and
many New Orleans foods came about.
Herbs, spices, and favorite foods from
many cultures united as one and came up
with some awesome cuisine. Let’s make
some Gumbo Ya Ya by coming together as
one with the time and talents He gave us to
make this Mardi Gras the biggest and best
ever!
Call Shelia at 770.962.0520 or Elizabeth at
the parish office at 770.867.4876 for more
information.
