Plans are continuing by a joint committee for our combined Parish picnic on Sunday, September 1, from 2:00-7:00 p.m. at Brady's Run Park. Please set aside time that day to come together.
Hopefully, summer provides everyone with a little extra time for rest and relaxation. With equal hope, may the rest and relaxation lead us to quiet, lovely moments with God. Porch, park, beach, backyard can all provide moments to experience the beauty of God's creation and the love of God around us - Everywhere!
More discussions are taking place covering areas of ministry we can already serve together.
The salaried Music Ministers are meeting with Fr. Paul. Fr. Mark is leading discussions in a joint RCIA effort and a Spiritual Life Planning Committee for all parishes.
Steps are underway for a united Religious Education Program. The departure of Chris Patsch from St. Cecilia will be filled by Jamie Connelly, the Religious Ed. Coordinator for Saints Peter and Paul and the addition of Rose Flajnik, from St. Cecilia, who will work with Jamie as a Program Manager. They, with Sue Bower (Holy Family) and Danielle Tokin (St. Felix) are sharing their skills and experience for all four programs. The possibilities are very exciting, actually.
The Catholicism Series will continue Tuesday evenings in July at St. Cecilia after Mass at 7:30 p.m.
Friends, when parking for Mass, especially near Saints Peter and Paul, please be careful not to block driveways and ignore yellow curbs. The residents have every right to complain to the police.
