Dear Parishioners,
I am at St. Paul’s this weekend as I begin my role as their pastor. The schedule looks like we will rotate at St. Paul’s each weekend on a three week cycle. This Sunday we are doing the case statement for the Annual Appeal for Catholic Ministries. Next weekend will be the Commitment Weekend. You should be prepared to make a pledge next weekend to the appeal. All of the monies go the charities sponsored by the appeal with 25% coming back to the parish. Here at Resurrection of the returned amount, 50% goes to Corpus Christi Food Pantry, 25% to our tuition endowment and 25% to our building fund. Our goal for this year is $178,120. Last year we raised almost $230,000 exceeding our goal by $59,000. Our parish has always had a generous heart for the poor and I am sure you will respond accordingly this year.
Fr. Warren has retired and will take up residency on the grounds of the All Saints Sisters in Catonsville where he will serve as their chaplain. I expect to see him frequently and hope he will fill in for us occasionally. It has been a pleasure working with him over the years and I know I speak on behalf of all of you in wishing him a happy and long retirement.
On next Saturday evening the school has its annual Gala and this year they are honoring Barbi Frederick who has taught 2nd grade for 40 years! It has obviously been a good match as she looks like she is just beginning. Congratulations Barbi on your tremendous service and contribution to multiple generations who have gone through our school.
I want to thank you for allowing me a little time off and invite anyone who might be interested to join me on a cruise from Australia and around New Zealand in February of 2020. See the flyer for details.
Fr. John
