Dear Parishioners, On Monday, September 8, 2003, I leave for Rome, Italy, to participate in a sabbatical program at the North American College. All of you received a letter regarding this on July 14th. I will return around Thanksgiving and I will celebrate Mass here on the First Sunday in Advent. Although I will be away and miss you for these weeks, the Lord is calling me to renew my priesthood through this time of prayer, study, and sharing with the other priests on sabbatical, the faculty of the College, and the seminarians from North America who are studying for the priesthood at the College. While I am in Rome, Deacon Bill Schill will administrate the parish. Please refer all administrative and pastoral concerns to him. I ask for your prayers for me as I take this time for renewal. Please continue your generosity to our parish. I will pray for you especially through daily Eucharist. Sincerely in Christ, Fr. Kevin
Arrivederci Father Kevin Buon Viaggio !

RESTORATION PLEDGE PROGRAM NEARING THE END Doesn't seem possible, but there is only 4 months left until the completion of our pledge program. At this time, there is $45,371. left in unpaid pledges. Some of this amount is uncollectable due to death of parishioners and a very few pledges have not been honored at all. Your payments have been coming in very regularly and many have been making payments even though they did not pledge. If you have not donated for the church restoration and would like to show your support , perhaps now is the time to do so.
