Building Committee Update - August
When we met with the Bishop and members of the diocese finance and building committees, we talked about four different ways that we could move toward a new church. These four possibilities are each being explored. The Bishop likes that we have taken up his suggestion, of working outside of the box.
Doesn't that apply to every element of our desire to one day have the church we want? Our Building Committee meetings often run on this theme, like the eleven A signs advertising our mass times in different neighborhoods. A different way to evangelize. When something does not work, we don't quit on it, we search for a new way, a better way to reach our goal. Yet, different ideas come from different people. Could you be one of those people? When our monthly meetings start up again in September, it would be a blessing to hear new voices around the table. This next year could prove to be our most challenging, and rewarding year, as we move closer toward building our new church. We would love to have you be part of the challenges and successes I see coming in this next year.

Please be vigilant: Our bishops, priests, deacons, parish staff and religious do not request gift cards or cash through emails or texts. If you receive such requests, they are highly likely to be a scam. Protect yourself by ignoring these messages, and do not respond. For the safety of our community, report any suspicious activities to the parish office. Your awareness and action can help prevent these scams from spreading.
