2022 Litnic Season

It’s time to plan for the 2022 Litnic season! Litnics are Liturgy picnics, and here’s how they work. Someone who wants to host a litnic calls the parish office and signs up for one of the posted available dates. They receive parish guidelines for hosting a litnic which must be read carefully. Litnics are particularly intended for Catholics in the host’s neighborhood, but all parishioners are invited to litnics. A Mass is celebrated in the home or the yard (the lit) followed by a potluck supper (the nic). Available dates for summer 2022 follow:

August 18, 31

Call the parish office now and sign up!
