From Hope to Cure at Relay For Life

One of the events I missed in my first year at St. Nicholas was Relay For Life. I had a pre-scheduled conference to attend before I even heard of St. Nicholas, so I unfortunately missed out on last year’s event. This year, though, I made sure I was around for this event. Read more

Relay For Life This Friday!

Only a few more days until Relay For Life! There are still many ways you can help! You can show up on Friday night at the Harris County High School football field at 5:00pm to help set up. We’ll be there all evening, so feel free to show up when you can! It’s a great time for fellowship and for meeting people in our community. We’ll also be meeting our friends from Christian Valley Church, who we are hoping to partner with on future outreach programs. If you are a cancer survivor, or have lost someone to cancer, then you know how important it is that we raise as much as we can for Relay For Life.

From HOPE to CURE

 

When the lights went out and the 100’s of luminaries came to life, the true meaning of Relay became very apparent.
All the preparations months, weeks and days before pale into in insignificance. 

 

 

In efforts to raise money for this noble cause we did what we do best, we ate and had fun, Tasty Barbeque, wonderful cakes (mississippi mud pie stampedes) and creative face painting (meow). We will make a considerable donation to Relay.

 
A hearty thanks to all who helped with setup, cooking, face-painting and breakdown. What a TEAM we have.
