It’s Fish Fry Friday time and the Knights of Columbus at San Antonio Catholic Church are extending an invitation to the community to join friends and neighbors for dinner.
This annual event, held every Friday night starting this week through Lent except Good Friday, features a delicious, freshly prepared fish dinner from golden fried shrimp to salmon, as well as a variety of other fish dishes, beverages and desserts — all at reasonable prices. The dinners are 5 to 7 p.m. in the church’s Glynn Hall.
Proceeds help the Knights of Columbus support various parish and community outreach charities such as Mary’s Path, for teen mothers and their babies; Thomas House, a shelter for homeless; Isaiah House, a temporary shelter for homeless women in OC; and San Antonio’s Family Assistance Ministry.
Why not give yourself the night off and enjoy a delicious dinner among family and friends while helping support local charities? For additional information, contact the church office at 714-974-1416. The church is on Santa Ana Canyon Road and Soloman Drive.
