This Sunday, September 20, is our annual Summer Church Picnic at Halleck Park in Papillion. The picnic follows the Liturgy of the Holy Eucharist at church. The park is only a short drive from the church.
Halleck Park is a beautiful 70 acre park that offers many opportunities for fun, including a stocked fishing lake. We have reserved the large covered pavilion at the park that we use every year. You can’t miss it!
Here is a link to the Halleck Park Website that will give you more information on the park as well as directions:

We have reserved the covered pavilion from Sunday morning until 2:00 PM, but you can remain at the park as long as you like. This Sunday only we are moving up Services by half an hour because of the picnic. Matins will begin at 9:00 AM, followed by the Liturgy of the Holy Eucharist at 9:30 AM.
The forecast for Sunday is for beautiful weather: partly sunny and pleasant with a high of 75 degrees. We will be grilling hotdogs and hamburgers. Members of our Holy Cross church-family are asked to bring two side dishes, or a side dish and a desert. Visitors are our guests and do not have to bring a thing. The event is free, so please be sure to invite family and friends.
Matins is at 9:00 AM, followed by the Liturgy of the Holy Eucharist at 9:30 AM, with our annual Summer Church Picnic at Halleck Park immediately after the Liturgy. The Picnic is free, and there will be plenty of good food and fun for everyone, so be sure to invite family and friends. We are a faithful and friendly congregation, and we have a place for you.
