FATHER ABEL’S COLUMN – APRIL 24TH, 2016

Bishop Chappetto

Please note that I have made some minor renovations to our bathrooms in the Church. We have now designated the bathroom in the church vestibule for men and the bathroom closest to the chapel,  for women. Also, please notice the addition of the door by the chapel to create a bit more privacy for those using it. The total cost of the job was $9,900.00.

I am happy to let you know that Bishop Chappetto will re-dedicate our beautiful chapel on Tuesday, May 3rd at 7pm. Now I have done a lot of praying and thinking about this with the priests and staff and have decided on the following: The church will certainly be open to everyone! However, the Mass will be celebrated in the Chapel.

Tickets will be given out to certain parishioners who attend daily Mass to be seated in the chapel for Mass, I will determine who those people will be. Everyone else will be able to gather in the Church where they will be able to watch the re-dedication live with the help of DeSales Media, our Catholic Television Network for the Diocese. I think this is the best and fairest way to approach this. Please be patient and I do encourage all of you to attend.
