Dear Parishioners,

When I came to Resurrection five years ago, one of the things I noticed that I thought would be nice would be a sidewalk linking the path through the woods from the rectory going across the island to the front of the Church.  Many people park on the side of the street on Paulskirk Dr. and this would also give them access to the church without having to walk on the grass when wet or if there is snow on the ground. 

A young man, Jake Norton from trop 615 has taken this on as an Eagle Scout project and I was happy to return from vacation to see the completed project.  A railing still needs to be installed by the three steps, but other than that it is open for business.  Thanks Jake and all your helpers in making this campus improvement.  A future project will see the installation of a permanent fire pit next to the sidewalk to be used for the Easter Vigil and double as a flower garden in the summer.  

I haven’t broken the news to Fr. Canisius yet that he is in charge of shoveling the sidewalks this winter. 

Fr. John
