Greetings - May 8th!
We had a wonderful celebration for Fr. Leach's 50th anniversary of his ordination to the Priesthood. It was great to have so many parishioners present; I know Father and his family really appreciated everything. The congratulatory comments from Father's "poker buddies" were hilarious. Father's "no gift please" request was very typical of his humble ways. His suggestion for gifts to our Vincent de Paul totaled $5,150. To honor Fr. Leach's 50th and his loving ministry here at our parish, we are acquiring a new crucifix for the Adoration Chapel.
My personal thanks to those who made a pledge/gift to this year's ACA. Of course we still have "a ways to go." If you have your ACA card at home, there is still time to return it. You can put it in the Sunday Collection, drop it off at the Parish Office, or mail it to us.
