The Chaplaincy hosted a Food Festival in the parish garden on Sunday, 24 July 2011 to raise funds toward Youth Ministry projects. The weather in July was not very encouraging, but the skies held back on this day as if to support the youth, who provided musical entertainment and helped with after-care assignments.
