L or e YOUR ONE-STOP GUIDE TO THE S PARISH FESTIVALS
2 2018 Welcome to the Diocese of Toledo s 2018 Festival Guide Welcome to the Diocese of Toledo s 2018 Festival Guide. Each summer we are blessed with a bounty of parish festivals to attend, all across our diocese. We have countless volunteers and dedicated festival Chairpersons to thank for their hard work and commitment for keeping this generational tradition alive. Attending parish festivals allows us to spend time with our families and get reacquainted with our friends while we acknowledge our faith and the opportunity to evangelize to others. Each year, our goal is to make the guide as accurate as possible and as accessible as possible. We make regular updates to the guide as the year progresses, as some festivals occur late in the fall. You will see that some parishes have information presented as display ads with detailed information on special foods, kids games, cash raffles and musical entertainment. Featured listings are highlighted in yellow, indicating that there is also a display ad associated with it. Since many parishes hold festivals later in the year, some listings are noted as to be announced until we receive accurate dates and times. If your parish Attending parish festivals allows us to spend time with our families and get reacquainted with our friends while we acknowledge our faith and the opportunity to evangelize to others. festival was accidentally omitted, or you see an error, please email your correction to us. Last, but not least, we give our deepest thanks to every parish that helped support publication of this guide. Your advertisements made it possible to continue to bring this information to our community. Very special thanks goes out to our 2018 Diocesan Festival Guide Community Sponsor, Joe Holmes, owner of Reger s Church and Religious Supplies. Joe continues to bless us with his dedication to serving the Catholic community and we are very grateful for his assistance. We pray for the success of each festival and the enjoyment of our communities of faith! PUBLISHER MOST REV. DANIEL E.

3 2018 2018 Diocese of Toledo Festival Guide Community Sponsor Reger s Proudly Supports NW Ohio Catholics I am proud to be the Community Sponsor of the 2018 Diocese of Toledo Festival Guide. Attending our Catholic parish festivals never grows old for me they are always a welcome sign of the return of beautiful weather and a source of fun, faith-filled activities. In a world where we all spend too much time in isolation on our electronic devices, Catholic parish festivals offer a wholesome opportunity to re-connect with each other in conversation and companionship. At Reger s, we strive to serve our community of faith every day. We know that without the support of our many parishes and parishioners, it would be impossible for us to continue to provide our comprehensive selection of church supplies and religious gifts throughout the 19 counties of the diocese. It means more to me than I can say when you choose to shop local with us, instead of through other means, like the internet. Your continued patronage of Reger s also allows us to give back to our own community in many ways, such as in our ability to deliver the annual Diocese of Toledo Directory to each parish and school. I wish you a wonderful and exciting summer, filled with special festival memories. And, once again, I thank you sincerely for your continued support and kindness throughout the coming months.
