Fellowship and Recreation are important aspects of the Church’s mission by providing opportunities for being together and building one another up in the faith.  Facilities for this purpose do not stand alone, but rather they provide integral support to the Parish Education, Parochial School, and Worship functions.

§   3.2          Kitchen

§   3.3          Church Parlor

The Parish Hall/Multipurpose Facility is used for large gatherings serving a variety of purposes and functions.  These include church potlucks, voter’s assemblies, and large meeting needs.
