Our Parish Picnic was a smashing success! Not only for our church, but for the lucky winners of our grand raffle prizes! Here is a video of the raffles, drawn by Fr. Peter and announced by Sharon Collins. Truly everyone who came on Sunday was a winner at our picnic, with over 150 people attending, spectacular weather, plenty of food and games, pony rides, and a dunk tank all in good fun. What a great parish community we have at St. Francis!
