HICKORY — After Mass Nov. 3, the Stewardship Committee of St. Aloysius Church hosted a potluck dinner to honor all the volunteers who give of their time and talent working in the parish and also to those who take their time and talent into the community.
The Stewardship Committee wanted to serve the volunteers who are always ready, willing and able to make St. Aloysius a vibrant and growing parish by doing the Lord’s work.
Holy Family Hall was filled with festive decorations and lots of food for the 120-plus people who attended the potluck dinner.
The Knights of Columbus and others helped the Stewardship Committee put together the celebration.
