500 Days to 50 Years is a holistic renewal initiative created by Fr. Dave to help our parish prepare for its 50th Anniversary. Beginning on Ash Wednesday (2/18/2026), parishioners are invited to grow through spiritual, physical, emotional, and relational renewal. The program encourages setting personal goals, reflecting regularly, and participating in 100 day check‑ins – all designed to strengthen our individual well‑being and deepen our unity as a parish community.
Our Next Event:
March 9, 2026: Lindsay Fullerman, Life Coach, Dinner and Presentation; Presentation on Wellness of Mind, Body, Soul, and Relationships
Join us in Hanson Hall to welcome Lindsay Fullerman as our first scheduled speaker for the 500 Days to 50 Years Program. Lindsay is a life coach and the founder of Full of Grace Wellness. With an extensive background in health, wellness, and theology, she will provide the motivation we need to stay focused on the goals we have set.
