Attendees can enjoy a selection of baked goods along with cold and hot cider, and water available before the show and during intermission. The event is a product of dedicated volunteers who have spent weeks preparing and organizing, embodying a collective mission of “co-creating with God” to spread joy throughout the community.
Father Kenneth Cardinale, pastor of Our Lady of the Lake Parish, states, “Celebrating creativity and the unique gifts of the community is a way of honoring God. Let us all focus on gratitude and the belief that artistic expression can bring people closer to God and to one another.”
