Disabilities Ministry will celebrate its 25th SPREAD dinner dance event on March 8

The archdiocesan Disabilities Ministry will celebrate its 25th annual SPREAD dinner dance event in the St. Pius X Parish Hall, 7200 Sarto Dr., in Indianapolis, from 6-8:30 p.m. on March 8, with the option of worshipping at the parish’s 5 p.m. Mass.

SPREAD (Special Religious Education and Discipleship) groups in the archdiocese use adaptive programs and activities to enrich their faith formation and provide opportunities for discipleship in their parish.

The annual dinner dance is an opportunity for members of the various groups to come together for a fun evening of fellowship.

This year’s theme is “Fiesta Celebration.” Participants can enjoy a taco/fajita bar for dinner before dancing to beats spun by a SPREAD member as the evening’s DJ.

The event will include a 50/50 raffle, a prize table, door prizes and a photo booth where participants can pose for selfies or for a professional photographer.

The event is $20 per person, and registration is required by Feb 3.
