As the Mass of Thanksgiving was virtual this year, we decided to make it a little more interactive by including videos of volunteers and participants in our programs. 2021 is also a special year as the 60th anniversary of the ordination of our founder, Fr. Jack Deegan, O.S.A. Here are all of the ministry videos from the Mass, Fr. Jack’s video, and a recording of the Mass itself.
Thank you so much to all of our supporters, especially the Gallagher family for sponsoring the event.
