What is the Fall Bazaar?

Its purpose is to unite our entire community for a day of Faith, Fun and Fellowship while also providing some much-needed financial assistance to both our Church and School. We invite all to enjoy the food, drinks, games, live entertainment, raffle, bingo, live and silent auctions, as well as crafts!

Fellowship = Great Food!! We will have LOTS of food, including the Knights of Columbus BBQ, our Hispanic Ministries' delicious tacos, elotes and frutas. Gumbo & Jambalaya for our Cajuns! Pizza, nachos, hot dogs, Frito pie, snacks, sweets and more! Don't forget about the beer, wine, sodas, water and more!


THE FUN

Try your luck with RAFFLE tickets, only $10 each with chances to win HUGE PRIZES! Bingo, games & activities galore! How about Live and Silent Auctions! The Silent Auction will be happening in the gymnasium from 11:30AM – 3:00PM. The Live auction will begin at 4:00PM at the stage outside the gymnasium and the RAFFLE drawings will begin immediately following the conclusion of the Live Auction.


We need your help!

The bazaar is a great place to get started on your 24 hr. volunteer hours.


With a large-scale event like the Fall Bazaar there are countless opportunities to get those family service hours in.

Whether you have a free hour (or TEN), we will happily accept your help.
