Gaudete Gala
Thank you to everyone who attended our Gaudete Gala at St. Ignatius College Prep’s Tully Hall. This inspiring event was more than a celebration—it was a vital fundraiser that directly supports our mission to serve our community! It was an inspiring evening as community leaders, church members, and friends came together to celebrate our parish’s accomplishments and the collective efforts that make our community stronger. Stay tuned for our 2026 Gaudete Gala date!
All proceeds from the Gaudete Gala will directly benefit five important ministries and programs:
The Food Pantry, Youth Employment in The Athletic Center, Formation of our Community Health Ministry, our Legacy Scholarship and our Caritas Fund, which provides charitable outreach to our neighbors and communities throughout the world.
Congratulations to our 2025 Gaudete Gala Awardees!
