Trunk or Treat | Saturday, October 28 | 5:00 pm

Sign up to host a trunk, bring treats, or costume up and collect the treats! Volunteers are needed to help chalk spaces, draw arrows, control trick-or-treater traffic, and run candy.

Chili Cookoff 2023 | November 4 | 5:00 pm

Does your family have an award-winning chili recipe or do you like to eat chili? Join the Outreach Team for their chili cookoff! Vote for your favorite chili. Awards will be given to first, second, and third place, as well as, a special spiciest chili award.

No need to RSVP to eat, but please enter your chili by emailing outreach@blessed-midland.org or filling out the online form.

PS - we'll also be streaming some football. Can you think of a better fall Saturday?

Advent Wreath Event on December 3 from 9:00-12:30 (split into 1-hour and 45-minute shifts). Volunteers will help with cookie decorating.

About Volunteering

If you need service hours for school, National Honors Society, or college applications, we are happy to sign off on the hours you serve the parish. We appreciate any time you are willing to give out of your busy schedules. Because we know you're so busy, we are also happy to write letters of recommendation for college or clubs or serve as references for job applications.

Families are also welcome to serve together!
