Children will have baskets full of Easter fun at Holy Family’s Annual Easter Egg Hunt following the 10:00 am Mass at Holy Family Church on Easter Sunday, March 31! Children will search the Prayer Garden for hundreds of hidden eggs, and in the event of inclement weather, they will hunt in the Holy Family Hall. Children are welcome to bring their own baskets, but bags will be provided. Interested in volunteering?  Volunteers will meet in Holy Family Hall during Communion at the 10:00 am Mass and be assigned two doors, where they will hand out bags to children and release different age groups into the Prayer Garden when it is time for the hunt. They will also assist in decoration clean-up after. In the event of inclement weather, the hunt will take place in the hall. If interested, please contact Eva at ethelen@hffdl.org or (920) 921-0580 ext. 202.
