From The Pastor
Perhaps in the “old days” things used to get slow in the
summer. That is definitely not the case now. While we are a
little bit less active as a parish in the summer months there is
still plenty going on: Just Neighbors, Adult Ed (we had 35 to 40
attendees on Monday night and about 25 on Wednesday
morning), getting ready for Vacation Bible School, the Job
Assistance Ministry, etc. We were once expected to top out at
1500 to 1700 families and we built accordingly. Now we are
over 2500 families and we’re not expected to get any smaller.
We are looking at the possibility of having another priest at
least part of the time and expanding our Mass schedule to
three Masses on Sunday mornings (five altogether each
weekend). We may also add another weekday Mass. The
Census went really well (THANK YOU!!) and we will be
gearing up for visiting each parishioner in the Fall (that will
need some 250 to 300 volunteers!).
In the midst of all this activity let us realize that it is not
“busy-ness” for its own sake. Everyone of us is challenged to
make our parish community a reflection of the Lord Jesus. I
continue to encourage us to get active and stay active as a
deliberate choice to witness to Him in the world. We have
been greatly blessed let us actively and deliberately share
our blessings!
Peace & Love,
Fr. Dan
