Dear Parishioners,
On this first weekend of July, we welcome Fr. Joseph Abraham, MSFS, to our staff and parish. Please find his contact information in today’s bulletin. I believe that Father has been serving in our diocese for just about 2 years. The unfortunate thing is that we don’t have a rectory for him to stay at right now. But he has a comfortable place to live offsite and like me, will be commuting back and forth for the time being. He will get a first-hand look at all the construction that will be going on this summer around the parish. If you get a chance, please introduce yourself to Father Joseph and welcome him to our parish community.
Fr. Joseph will have about a week to adjust to the parish before we introduce him to our summer Vacation Bible School experience. I hope the weather will be pleasant next week and not like the hot summer we had a few years back! I look forward to welcoming our families and children to another great year of VBS! There are so many volunteers that help us out each year to make this such a wonderful experience and I appreciate all of you!
Do I have any updates about the buildings and what is new and what is being worked on? Because of all the early deadlines for the bulletin for the 4th of July holiday week, I don’t have an update here. Please check the update board in the narthex for the latest news!
Thanks for reading!
Fr. Mark
