From The Pastor: 10-28-2018

This week's message from Father Al...

A few reminders of what is happening in the parish:

This Tuesday, October 30th at 6:30 pm in the cafeteria we will have a follow-up session to our Town Hall Listening Sessions on Clergy Sexual Abuse. At the previous three sessions, there was great truth being spoken and we need to clarify where we go forward from here. I invite everyone to come to this meeting as we look at the next step in both the healing process and in making substantive changes in the parish and the Church as a whole.

This week we celebrate the Solemnity of All Saints which is a holy day of obligation. Please check the bulletin or parish website for the Mass Times.

November 2nd is All Souls Day and at 7:00 pm on Friday evening we celebrate a special Mass of Remembrance praying for and remembering all those who have died in our parish this past year. All are welcome but especially the loved ones of those who have been buried from our parish this past year.

In a few weeks, we will have our annual financial report. It was a good year and I am looking forward to keeping you updated.

Jackie Abel, our Director of Communications and IT, will be leaving our parish staff on October 29th. We thank Jackie for all the good she has brought to the parish and wish her all the best in her future endeavors. Ayana Elmore, our IT person at the school, will be jumping in with the bulletin and website in the future. Please be patient as we make this transition.
