 Santa Maria Barbecue :

Saturday ! September 26 4:30 p.m.

Parish Hall Lawn.

Coming up Saturday, September 26 is our annual Santa Maria BBQ, for over a decade now one of our most popular and best-attended parish events.   On the Parish Hall lawn we grill tri-tip and chicken over red oak fires using a time-honored Santa Maria recipe, and add a simple salad, barbecue beans and grilled French bread.  You bring drinks and desserts and your family and friends and it all adds up to an all-you-can-eat feast of great food and great fellowship. 

 Still Looking For Help:

People to Bring Drinks, Appetizers, and Desserts!

 None of this happens without the many helping hands each year who do everything from purchasing to grilling, setup to cleanup.  No experience necessary!  If you'd like to be part of this year's happy crew, say so on the sign-up sheet after church, or contact coordinator Chris Askew directly at

626 200-5209  or,  christopher.askew@gmail.com.
