Community Events

First Friday Breakfast provides an opportunity for members of the Holy Name of Jesus community to gather and share a meal and fellowship on the First Friday of every month after the 7 a.m. daily Mass. All are invited to join us for a delicious, hot breakfast served in the Faber Room of the Pastoral Center, starting around 7:45 a.m. Come enjoy eggs, grits, waffles, hot coffee and more, and enjoy visiting with fellow members of our community. All are welcome! 

All members of the Holy Name of Jesus community are invited to join us for our quarterly Community Dinners, which are hosted by various organizations in the school and parish community, including the Men's Club, Parent Teacher Club, Pastoral Council, and Women of Wisdom. This is a great opportunity to share a meal while witnessing Christ's loving presence to each other through our hospitality. The dinner typically takes place in the HNJ Parish Center at 6 p.m. (day varies). All are welcome! 

The dinner takes place in the HNJ Parish Center at 6:30 p.m. Check the events calendar for dates.

We enjoy dinner and a faith-based movie together at the parish center on select Fridays at 6 p.m. Among other things, we have been watching the acclaimed series The Chosen and we engage in fellowship and discussion following each episode. All parishioners and friends are invited to attend. 

Prior to each movie night, all are welcome to join us at 5:45 p.m. for a contemplative prayer experience. The prayer focuses on a passage of scripture in which each person participating is asked to focus on a word or passage and silently listen for God's word to penetrate the mind, body, and soul. This is a wonderful way to place yourself in God's presence as you end your week.
