2021 will mark the 40th Anniversary of SS Peter & Paul becoming a new parish in Rocklin. To honor the occasion, we are planning on holding four celebration events, one during each quarter of the calendar year. The events are in the planning stages but include a jogathon, a Commemorative Mass and Dinner at SS. Peter & Paul, a Parish Picnic, and a Fall Festival.
We have formed a steering committee and four other subcommittees to spearhead the programs.
To further memorialize the 40 years, we plan to revitalize and repurpose the acre parcel in the north east corner of the parish property, better known as the Nature Area. The initial plans include replacing the existing stage area to accommodate either outdoor mass or choir/musical performances, surround the stage with a natural tiered view for seating around existing trees and adding a winding trail around the perimeter of the parcel with seating areas for meditation, eventually adding stations of the cross. The plan also includes having a grand opening and holding the parish picnic in the repurposed Nature Area at the end of September 2021. The cost for this project will not be supported by parish funds but rather by a separate commemorative fund-raising effort.
We look forward to this time of celebration for our community to commemorate 40 years as SS. Peter & Paul Parish!
