As we shared meals after services, many of us have asked for recipes of the delicious dishes brought by others. From this, the idea for our St. Mary’s Fundraiser Cookbook was born- a
resource to celebrate the wonderful food and cherished traditions that bring us together.
We need your help!
Please share your favorite recipes: entrees, side dishes, desserts, fasting-friendly, or ethnic dishesevery contribution adds to the richness of this project.
Send your recipes to Katia Bruno (katia.yurova@gmail.com) or Lindsay Klipa (lmklipa@gmail).

Let’s make this cookbook a true reflection of our St. Mary’s family.
