I thank all of those who have served on our parish councils this past year and those who have agreed to become members in the upcoming year. Those leaving the Parish Pastoral Council are Larry Schmidt, Danute Cline, Demetrio Macariola, and Eileen Quesenberry. New members are Scott Perry, Diane Meylee, and Euridice Aguilar. There remains one opening on the Parish Pastoral Council that I hope to have filled by our next meeting in August. Those leaving the Parish Finance Council are Kathy Maile and Marie Wilson. New members are Jim Brady and John Goergen.
In August I was wanting to take a look at parish committees that need to exist under the oversight of the Parish Pastoral Council. One of these committees is the Social Committee. Thankfully Petra has already agreed to chair this committee again. This committee’s first project will be the meal which will be attached to our September 12th Parish Homecoming Celebration. Please contact the parish office or Petra if you would like to assist her on this committee.
I know that following the past year other parish organizations are in need of members. During the pandemic we have received many new parishioners who I would like to be involved in the life of the parish. Therefore, we will have a Newcomer Welcoming on August 1st following the 10am and 12pm Mass. We will also have a Ministry Fair on the weekend of August 14/15 following all Masses. If you are the head of a ministry I ask that you begin preparing for this weekend and make plans to have someone available to invite parishioners to be involved in your ministry.
In Christ,
Fr. Dustin Collins
