Who will be this year’s top cook with a collar?
The Diocese of Allentown 2025 Cooks with Collars is officially on, and HGA IS IN IT TO WIN IT! If Father Hoffa wins - we all win because 100% of the voting proceeds stay right here in our parish!
VOTING BEGINS MONDAY, SEPT. 1ST!
This year, Father Hoffa is joined by his Assistant Cook with a Collar, the newly ordained, Father Rienzo!

Clergy & staff at HGA typically make the kitchen their first stop of the day. And it’s usually quiet – until mid-June when a LOUD NOISE started coming from the kitchen almost every morning. It was Father Rienzo crafting his smoothie for the day!
FR. HOFFA & FR. RIENZO NEED YOUR VOTES! BRAGGING RIGHTS ARE ON THE LINE!
Each vote is $10 (or more!), and all proceeds stay right here to benefit HGA! Funds from this year’s voting will go towards new light pole banners for the 21 light poles around campus. The banners are two sided with the parish logo on one side and school logo on the other. The banners will be a great addition to our beautiful campus.
VOTE EARLY & VOTE OFTEN FOR FR. HOFFA & HIS ASSISTANT, FR. RIENZO!
Votes are also accepted in cash or check. You may drop of or send your votes to the Rectory or place them in the collection basket in an envelope marked, "Cooks with Collars." Please make checks payable to Holy Guardian Angels. Cash and check donations will be added to the total online.
