Please join us for a fun night of inspirational speakers and great food and drink, as we celebrate:
Hands Across the Sea: Supporting Haiti Outreach.

In spite of the ongoing challenges in Haiti, including massive inflation, the Haiti Outreach Program continues to support and fight every day, 365 days a year, to improve the lives of people in the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere. We support almost all the operating costs annually to cover the costs to run a primary school, a high school, a parish and a medical clinic. In these difficult times in Haiti, they need us now more than ever.

To our longtime friends, partners, and parishioners, we will again celebrate Haiti in the Cathedral Hall at the Cathedral of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus in Knoxville. in the Cathedral Hall at the Cathedral of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus in Knoxville.
