Kick off the New Year by giving back and celebrating community at our Community Care Block Party on January 3, 2026, from 11 AM - 3 PM at Lock Park!

A new year reminds us that we’re strongest when we come together, support one another, and build a community grounded in care.

Join us for grilled hot dogs, sign-making competitions, great music, and a canned food and winter item donation drive to support our neighbors. This will be a potluck-style gathering, so feel free to bring a dish to share!

Don’t miss this fun time for a good cause!

It’s been a minute since we’ve done an ACTS Gives Back but it’s Giving Tuesday so we wanted to let you know about an event we have scheduled for December 13th. We’re doing at-door tickets for this one of $5, and collecting $5 or new/gently used comfy clothing for karaoke entries. Proceeds will benefit Catholic Charities laundry service.
