Every year it gets bigger and bigger.
In order to raise funds for the loan repayment for the building of the new friary in 2007, the friars hold a Founders Day benefit dinner every August. The first friars (the Founders) came to Guam in August of 1901.
Thanks to the heroic work of many volunteers, the dinners are always a huge success. Many people look forward to it every year.
The dinner, held at Saint Francis School's cafeteria, is beautifully decorated. A hotel-rank chef prepares the dinner for over 400 guests.
Besides the great food, drink and company, auction items,prizes and entertainment make for a merry time.
Father Jose Villagomez is one of several performers at the dinner, but also a regular as well as a favorite performer.
