Blessing of Animals
The annual Blessing of the Animals occurs in the afternoon on the feast day of St. Francis on October 5. This event is held outdoors in the school parking lot at 2:00 pm. Parishioners are encouraged to bring their pets for a blessing from Father.
Fish Fry
Every Friday during Lent a fish fry is held in the church hall. It is a fun time to meet friends and enjoy a meal. The fish dinner includes perch, parmesan noodles, coleslaw, rye bread, applesauce and a big dessert.
Road America Concession Stand
The concession stand is open during races held at the Road America race track in Elkhart Lake (only five miles from Plymouth). Volunteers sell to race fans and drivers from all over the country. It is always a good time to make new friends and enjoy the races.
Church Auction
This is an exciting evening allowing people to gather for a nice dinner and friendly competition bidding on great items at the silent auction. Every year there is a theme, which adds to the festivity.
Mission Trips
Every year the parish participates in county-wide mission trips with other Catholic parishes. It is a wonderful opportunity for the youth of SJB to make new friends and see other parts of the country while serving those less fortunate. Mission trips usually last approximately one week and have included destinations such as: Denver, CO; New Orleans, LA; Virginia Beach, VA; Mobile, AL; Kearny, NJ; St. Ann’s Bay, Jamaica.
Breakfast with Santa
Sponsored by the Knights of Columbus and building on the thrill of Christmas for the little ones, Santa comes to church to attend Mass and then have a big breakfast with the children. It is also possible to have a picture taken with the jolly fellow.
Holiday Craft Fair
Join us on November 4 for the Christian Women Holiday Craft Fair. It's a great opportunity to find hand-made crafts and other special gifts. In addition, a bake sale is held with all types of goodies. Rarely does anyone leave the craft fair / bake sale empty handed.
Easter Monday Card Party
Sponsored by SJB Christian Women, this event occurs on the Monday following Easter in the church hall. All games are played and refreshments are served. This enjoyable evening includes door and raffle prizes.
Super Raffle
This annual event awards cash prizes to the lucky winners.
