Annual St. Joseph Ministry Fair and Gumbo Feb. 3 at Rayne Civic Center
Plans are complete and St. Joseph parishioners are readying for the 2017 annual Ministry Fair and Gumbo to be held Friday, Feb. 3, in the Rayne Civic Center.
The doors will open at 5 p.m. The ministry fair will be held from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. and gumbo, prepared by Carol Menard and helpers, will be served at 6 p.m.
Parish ministries will be represented in numerous booths that will showcase the many services they provide, and also allow parishioners to learn about the church parish and the vast number of stewardship opportunities available to them.
Ample time will be provided for parishioners to socialize, visit the many ministry booths and register for the large number of door prizes to be given.
As in past years, there is no charge to attend nor is a ticket required to enter.
The public is invited to attend.
