Parish Social Events & Activities

Christmas Concert and Reception

Early in December the combined choirs of all the Masses and some guests from the Los Altos Community provide a concert of seasonal music followed by a reception in the larger parish hall at St. William.

Countryfest

One Saturday in October Countryfest is a time for the community to get together for an evening of dining and dancing. The St. William hall is decorated, the food is prepared on site and there is a live band. The last two years we have been fortunate to have the Bell Brothers perform and line dancing taught. Ania Scicinska has been the chef since we started. Her potato salad is always a highlight. Join us for a fun relaxing evening.

Bridge Groups

For information contact Marian, mverlot@hotmail.com

Event Receptions

Ad hoc committees are formed to host receptions before or after special event.  These include speakers, retirements and Easter Vigil to name a few.  For more information contact Lidia at the parish office, lfiandeiro@dsj.org

Funeral Receptions

Many families provide a catered reception following a funeral or memorial Mass.  Our Reception Committee prepares tables, and coffee/tea, and assist with on-site hospitality, if available.  Contact Lidia Fiandeiro, lfiandeiro@dsj.org

Lunch Bunch

A gathering for lunch and socializing on the first Thursday of the month, September through June.  Menus are coordinated with themes such as corned beef and cabbage in March to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.  Social time starts at 11:30 at S/t William Hall.  Appetizers and desserts are pot luck.  Beverages and meal are provided by volunteers under the direction of our chefs Warren Petree and Ron Pelligrini or are catered.  In 2018 the charge is $10 a person.  Reservation information is posted in the bulletin each month.

More than a dozen people volunteer to assist with food preparation, table setting, decorations, and clean-up.  Contact Liz or Bernard Lilly, bernardandliz@lillypadsite.com

Parish Picnic

The whole community gathers for Sunday evening Mass and picnic on the field at St, Nicholas School on a Sunday at the beginning of the school year.
