On Saturday, November 20th, Holy Cross Church and Our Lady of Peace Church jointly sponsored a Spaghetti Dinner held in the Holy Cross Parish Hall. Anyone who donated at least one non-perishable food item for Our Lady of Peace’s Food Pantry received a free meal! Nearly all of our generous diners donated much more than one item, some folks coming in with whole bags of food. It was wonderful to see the donations piling up in the church foyer.
This was the first joint event for the two Lakeland neighborhood churches and, because it was such a great success, it won’t be the last. Our Lady of Peace volunteers are already planning to have next year’s event at their church hall.
Thanks to our neighborhood merchants and some cash donations, the event cost nothing! We received:
Bread from New York Bakery
Salad fixings from Syracuse Banana
Pasta and sauce from Spaghetti Warehouse
Coca Cola products from Coca Cola
Gift certificates from Wegman’s, Tops, Walmart, and Sam’s Club
George Pisegna and Joe Kolonko - Chief Cooks!
There were over a dozen volunteers from each church who worked hard together to plan the event, solicit donations, set up the hall, prepare a delicious meal, serve it, and clean up afterward. And, over twenty bakers from both churches made cakes for dessert. Thank you all so much.
Fr. Sr. Madej (Holy Cross) and Fr. Fetcho (Our Lady of Peace)
Father Fetcho of Our Lady of Peace paid his first visit to our Parish and spent the evening enjoying everyone’s company, but especially that of Father Senior Walter Madej. By the end of the evening they were like old buddies. It was great to see.
The donations just piled up in the church foyer.
This event made us aware of the great need in our neighborhood, that our neighbors are willing to meet the need by their generous gifts, and that we are ready to work together to get it done. It was a terrific night!
Our annual summer Polish picnic on June 13, 2010, was a great success. Although we had a lot of competition from other festivals in the area, we did remarkably well. The picnic ran from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, but we started to run out of some food items as early as 3:15! And we didn’t prepare any less food than we usually do for our picnics.
We saw lots of familiar faces who attended our functions in the past. And, there were many new faces, too.  Our stepped up publicity and word-of-mouth advertising seem to be doing the trick. Thanks to Bobbi Lasinski for taking care of radio ads, to Richard Zalewski for putting up all those flyers, to Steve Zalewski for the road signs. and to Carol Rightnour for notifying the newspapers and TV stations.
And a special thank you to all of our hard-working parishioners for their time and effort. And thanks to our patrons!
Pat’s making her famous meatloaf for all to enjoy. It’s moist, flavorful, and terrific! In addition, we’re serving mashed potatoes and gravy, corn, bread, salad, dessert, and coffee, tea, or lemonade. Come join us. Where: Holy Cross National Catholic Church Parish Hall
