July 15, 2025DEAR FRIENDS,
It is my pleasure to invite you once again to the Regina Caeli Hermitage’s Annual Hog Roast Fundraiser. It will be held on Saturday August 23rd, in honor of Our Lady Queen of Heaven, Patroness of the Hermitage. This year we will have a special guest – Fr. Jesus Rodriguez, C.S.J., the Provincial of the Americas of the Congregation of Saint John, who on this occasion will bless the statue of the Risen Christ – Divine Mercy in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the foundation of the Brothers of Saint John.
In addition, at this year’s Hog Roast, we will be hosting something exciting and new: A silent auction! What is a silent auction? It is a form of fundraising where items will be on display for attendees to browse, place written bids upon, and purchase with the winning bid. The auction will take place during the Hog Roast and winners will be announced at the end of the event. Susan Guzman and Tony Knepp, faithful friends and helpers of the Hermitage, have put together a small team who are currently acquiring some great items that will be on display and available to take home with you should you have the winning bid. A few of the items that will be available to bid upon are: A special Father Francis-led experience at RCH with a gift and meal for your family or small group; Catholic children’s books for your child or grandchild (compliments of Tan Books); rosaries from Rugged Rosaries; a special framed piece of Catholic artwork for your home (courtesy of the Marian Fathers); and many other items especially requested for this event! |
If you have the winning bid, please plan on paying with cash or a check made out to the Congregation of St. John. All items are donated, so 100% of the proceeds will go back to the Hermitage to help with the costly upgrade to the road and for other immediate and future needs of Father Francis and the property. Please click on the pictures or here to access all relevant information: the program, suggested ticket price, additional ways to contribute, etc. Tickets are on sale until August 18th noon; space is limited, so don't delay and please let it know to anyone who might be interested. “Anyone who says money can’t buy happiness, hasn’t given enough away.” Alex Hormozi Thank you in advance and looking forward to seeing you getting happy at the RCH! 😄 Fr. Francis of the Child Jesus, Steward |
