Wine Tasting with Father Briggs

At this year's festival, Father Briggs will host a special wine tasting event. Prior to being ordained, he worked at a winery in the Shenandoah Valley. Father will share his knowledge with a group of parishioners over a small selection of wines. This event will last about 1 hour and be limited to 40 slots. Suggested donation for this event is $20. Tickets will be available with the raffle tickets and other festival items after all Masses the next two weekends.

Add an International Dessert to Your International Dinner

This year we are asking parishioners from our various communities to enrich the international dinner by preparing a dessert for the native land or heritage. By doing so, we will be able to better demonstrate the diverse cultural backgrounds represented at St. Philip. There will be a special signup sheet for persons interested into providing a dessert. While signing up, please tells us the county of origin so we have it properly labelled.
