Halloween Trunk and Treat

Join us on October 31 from 5:30-7 PM for a FREE, safe, and fun place to trick-or-treat!
We’ll be in our well-lit parking lot with tons of candy, glow sticks, small toys, hot chocolate, a DJ, lights, a dance party, and more!
This is a family-friendly community event, and everyone is welcome!
Not sure what a “Trunk or Treat” is? Kids walk from vehicle to vehicle (just like going from house to house) and receive candy from volunteers at each decorated trunk.

Join Eastside Medical Center for a family-friendly Trunk or Treat on October 31 from 5:30–7:00 p.m. at 2625 Parade Street in Erie. Children and families are invited to enjoy decorated trunks, Halloween treats, and festive fun!

Join The Cathedral Choir and professional soloists on November 1 at 5:00 P.M. for music of remembrance and celebration of the loved ones we have lost recently. Featuring Morten Lauridsen’s Lux Aeterna (Eternal Light), composed in 1997, this work of a living composer is modeled after the traditional Requiem Mass, but takes liberties to emphasize peaceful rest and hope in the resurrection for all. All music on the program is a music of comfort and celebration of our loved ones.

Families are invited to bring photos of loved ones we wish to remember. These photos will be included in our altar display for the concert as we honor and remember those who hold a special place in our hearts. Please ensure that photos are in a freestanding frame, no bigger than 5×7, and are labeled with your name. Photos may be dropped off at the Cathedral Office before October 29. Thank you for helping us create a meaningful display of remembrance for our concert.

Contact Chris Petit at cpetit@cathedralofstpaul.org for more information.

Join Whispering Lake Grove, ADF as we celebrate the changing of the season.
Be there as the Irish Celtic Goddess Brighid hands the Flame over to the Irish Hag Cailleach.

Virtual event on Zoom, open to everyone. Every Sunday, 2:30 to 3:00 PM Pacific (5:30 to 6:00 PM Eastern).

Every Sunday, Jaunty runs a free 30-minute live class online for adults who want to feel easier around people: starting conversations, keeping them going, and connecting at work, with friends, or on dates.

It's live with a real instructor, not a recorded webinar.

Jaunty has been teaching social skills since 2013, founded in San Francisco by Eric Waisman, author of Approach.

Space is limited, so please register and arrive a few minutes early.
