FaithFest is a day of family, faith, and fun to discover, celebrate and deepen our faith. We are thrilled to announce highlights of our entertainment for the event: On the main stage will be Jesse Manibusan, Curtis Stephan, and Francesca Battistelli, three great artists you won’t want to miss! AND there is no charge. FaithFest is FREE! Bring your children to climb the rock wall, bounce in the bouncy houses, get their faces painted, and more! Visit the Tent of Parishes to greet old friends and meet new ones from catholic churches and schools throughout Harford County. Listen to inspiring Christian music being performed throughout the day on the main stage by well-known artists. Join us for Mass at 7:00 p.m. celebrated by Archbishop Lori and followed by a fantastic fireworks display. Would you like to be a volunteer to help at FaithFest this year? Last year it was estimated that over 3,000 people attended FaithFest! We anticipate even more this year, so we appreciate any help you can give for two hours or more on Sept. 14. Contact Bob McConnell at bobmcconnell@comcast.net to sign up! Volunteers get a free T-shirt as well.

Please be vigilant in checking the source of any email or text received that may look like it is from Father Kunkel. There is a common scam that is happening a lot lately to area churches where people are getting emails and texts asking for help and to buy iTunes cards. These are not from Father Kunkel and should be deleted.
This is a reminder to everyone that during mowing season, April to November, placing potted or fresh flowers on the ground of the grave is not permitted, except for Easter, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day and must be removed within 15 days from the holiday. Plastic flower vases must be on the stone itself, not on the ground. Toys, balloons, lights, strings are prohibited unless attached to the grave marker. Planting of flowers around the grave marker is not permitted.
