Thanksgiving

Dear Friends in Christ,

As Thanksgiving approaches I want to thank the LORD for many things. So I thought I would make a “Thanksgiving List” for all we have received.

A BIG THANK YOU TO:

  • Our priests for their generous pastoral service to our diverse community,
  • Our parish staff for all the things they do for me and all of our parishioners in service, maintenance, religious education, Those who made Fr. Philip’s and my 25th Anniversary a memorable occasion,
  • Our St. Vincent de Paul Society for its dedication to serving Jesus in the poor,
  • Our Pastoral and Finance Councils for their collective wisdom and advice,
  • Our Offertory Program Committee for hard work and timely achievements,
  • Our parish choirs for their dedication to the service of the liturgy,
  • Our parish ministers, servers, lectors, and ushers for their gifts of time and talent,
  • Our School staff for their love and dedication to forming our children's hearts, minds, bodies, and spirits,
  • Our Knights of Columbus for the projects that have enhanced our parish,
  • Our Youth Group for restoring Coffee & Donuts on Sunday to enhance parish community,
  • Our 50th Anniversary Committee for their time and energy in preparing beautiful and interesting events,
  • Our Eucharistic Adorers for your prayers that strengthen us daily and nightly,
  • Our Festival Committee for their committed efforts that bore great fruit this year,
And THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU for your patience, love, support, and all the little things you do to make our parish a place where Christ is welcomed and worshiped.

Fr. Hildebrand
