The Dominican Sisters would like to express their deep gratitude for your generous response to them last weekend. They sold out of their baked goods and Sister was thrilled and felt her trip here was well worthwhile.
On another note, this past week a number of parishioners went to a Planning 2012 meeting for parish council members and finance council members, to receive information about the next step in the process. And I myself went to a Vicariate Meeting for the same purpose.
The next phase will be a Parish “Town Hall Meeting” which we have scheduled for next Sunday, March 18 at 6:00p.m. in the Upper Church. All of us who have been to these regional meetings will share whatever information we have received and we will answer whatever questions you may have.
We encourage as many as possible to come to get as full an understanding as possible about the restructuring of parishes over the next few years. We will talk about the proposed collaborative for St. Michael’s and our response so far. We are looking for your input as well offering you an opportunity to send your responses to the planning committee.
I look forward to our gathering together next Sunday evening!
