I am pleased to present to you our Stewardship Report for the Fiscal Year ‘23.

This Thursday, we celebrate one of our most beloved national holidays, Thanksgiving. Did God give us a specific way to thank Him? Yes! Jesus Christ gave us the Liturgy of the Eucharist, the Mass, at the Last Supper.  THE way to thank God. Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Love is patient, love is kind. When Paul defines love in this beautifully poetic verse, the second way he describes love is that it is kind. We can choose to be kind.

Why are you Catholic?  I want to encourage you to continue to learn and grow in our Catholic faith.

In November we are called in a special way to pray for the deceased, although hopefully, the practice is year-round

Last Sunday’s Sausage Dinner was quite a parish family success! Thank you to all the volunteers who helped cook, serve and clean up on the day of the event.

Monday, October 2nd, we celebrate the Memorial of our Guardian Angels. God loves us so much that He grants us an angelic Body Guard. Our Guardian Angels love us probably more than we love our selves.

Thanks for your support and for inspiring me as you live out your Catholic Faith daily. I hope and pray that you all grow in joy and holiness.

Why go to Mass? We encounter God, who loves us at each Mass in words and actuality. We are so loved, especially in communion, where Jesus show us the depth of His love.

Many of the current statistics about people attending Mass, being baptized and married, and leaving the faith are extremely disheartening. These statistics will hopefully continue to inspire all of us to proclaim our wonderful Catholic faith.

So, here's the question: do you and I need to pray? 

Is there baseball in Heaven? If so, is Heaven like the movie Field of Dreams? Do players play, and fans watch?

Fr Tim and I are happy to be assigned here and with your prayers  (most important) and patience, we will continue to encounter Jesus Christ and grow as his missionary disciples. 

This week, we celebrate the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. And this year it is a Holy Day of Obligation.
