Beefsteak Dinner
About
Since 2017, the Beefsteak Ministry has been hosting the annual Beefsteak Dinner, a cherished event that brings together the community for a night of good food, entertainment, and fellowship, all while raising funds for St. Francis Parish. What began as a humble effort by four volunteers has flourished into a much-anticipated gathering featuring live entertainment, a 50/50 drawing, chance auction prizes, and of course, a delicious catered filet mignon dinner served in the Center gym.
The true measure of the evening’s success is the enthusiasm and good fellowship shared among the friars, parish staff, parishioners, and friends of parishioners. The event is not just about raising funds; it’s about strengthening the bonds within our community and creating lasting memories together.
