St. Kieran’s Breakfast Club Family, Food, and Friendships Breakfast Club Schedule Breakfast Club Volunteers Needed

What is the Breakfast Club?

The Breakfast Club is one of many functioning groups at  St. Kieran Parish.  Primarily it serves as a meeting time for families and friends to gather, relax, and enjoy a wonderful fresh cooked buffet.  The buffet is usually served on the third Sunday of each month, starting in September and ending in May with Mother’s Day.  It’s a time for out parishioners to gather together as a community, the “St. Kieran Parish Community.”

How did the Breakfast Club start?

The Breakfast Club was started many years ago by a handful of parishioners cooking pancakes and eggs as a breakfast group.  The group has grown to 40 members serving over 600 people on Mother’s Day.  People ask, “How big is Breakfast Club going to get?”  The answer, “Only God knows!”

Parish groups raise money for a purpose. What purpose does the Breakfast Club serve?

The Breakfast Club serves the Building Fund.  All funds raised are turned over to the Building Fund, to be used for the repairs and maintenance of our parish buildings, grounds, and parking lots.  The Club may play a more pivotal role in the raising of funds to aid in the Millennium Campaign, with the expansions and improvements of the kitchen, serving halls, and parking lots.  The Breakfast Club is the only parish group directly serving the Building Fund, beside the monthly envelopes.

I have time in the morning on the third Sunday of the month.  Could I join the  Breakfast Club?

You sure can!

Actually, serving hundreds of hungry parishioners is an easy task when you divide the work into functions.  Your duties might be in one of the following areas:

·       Kitchen and omelet bar cook

·       Other food preparation

·       Hall table and chair set-up and take down

·       Greeting in Church lobby

·       Dessert table maintenance

·       Coffee, milk, and juice serving

·       Cleaning tables

·       Serving line duty

·       Wash and cleanup

·       Other miscellaneous duties

Your duties may vary from month to month.  We may be short of helpers in a certain area and you could lend a hand.

The Breakfast Club is a great group to join.  You can really make a difference.  When you start at 7:00 a.m. and finish at 12:00 noon, when you help to serve hundreds of hungry people, when you start with an empty hall and finish with an empty hall, and when you are part of raising a large contribution to the Building Fund, “Believe Me, You Feel Very Good!”
