The Ancient Order of Hibernians (AOH) will be selling raffle tickets after Masses at St. Bridget’s on February 4 and 5, 2017. The cost is $10 per ticket with a cash prize of $4,000 that can be used for a “Trip for 2 to Ireland”. Drawing for the prize is March 26, 2017 at the Irish Festival on Church Hill. You can also contact our Raffle Chair Jim Woods at jwoods0701@gmail.com or 804-339-3628 if you’d like to buy tickets. Last year’s winner, Ed Rossmoore, is a Parishioner at St. Michael’s.
In addition to our other charitable contributions, over the past 14 years we’ve donated over $48,250 from the raffle proceeds to St. Bridget’s ($5,425 in donations) and other Catholic Churches and Schools in the Richmond area.
The AOH is America’s oldest Irish Catholic Fraternal Organization. The Major James Dooley Division of the AOH has been active in the Richmond area for over 38 years. Our Motto is Friendship, Unity and Christian Charity.
Also, the AOH will be available to discuss membership and accept applications after each Mass. Please contact John Cates at 804-972-2729; johncates1@verizon.net for AOH membership information.
