This year, we’ve moved the Taste to October so that we can focus on the daylong Fall Festival on Saturday, September 8, and add another fun Parish-wide event to the calendar!

We deliberately put the words “Catholic” in this opening welcome. At Transfiguration, we are Catholic. We’re not ashamed of it; in fact, we’re very excited about it! At Transfiguration, we believe, celebrate, and proclaim the fullness of the Catholic Faith that has been given to the Church down through the centuries.
