Fr. Guerin Dinner Dance is ON!

We can’t wait to see you this Saturday—the Feast of St. Francis de Sales—at The Bellevue Hotel as we celebrate 100 Years of Oblate Ministry in Philadelphia.

A trusted Oblate-educated local news source, Bob Kelly, NECHS ’81, tells us that after watching the radar and the models, and conferring with other meteorologists, the first snowflake isn’t expected until well after the gala is over!

Right now, snow isn’t forecast to begin until Sunday morning, so no need to cancel - there will be clear skies for a great night out, with a 100% chance of Salesian friendship and fun!

Here are a few important details to help you plan your night:
