It is with great pleasure that we welcome Father Tom Aleksa to our parish staff as senior associate. Father Tom has been a pastor in Erie, Bradford, Tionesta, and Tidioute, Pennsylvania. By God’s grace he has recovered successfully from some major health problems and is now returning to active ministry. I am pleased to have him aboard here in our parish. At the same time we thank and appreciate Father Glover and Father Rouch for their weekend assistance. Everyone was always pleased with their liturgies. I wish to thank Father Jerry Priscaro for his weekday help over the past year. He has surely helped keep our Mass schedules on track. Father Aleksa started here on November 21.
OUR CANTOR MINISTRY is depleting in numbers due to physical ailments, work commitments, etc. Cantors are needed to cover the 5:00 pm liturgy and the 10:00 am liturgy every other Sunday. Please call Rich Wiler at 825-6803 or e-mail Rich at richman83@hotmail.com. THE VOICES IN PRAISE CHOIR needs new members to enrich our liturgies. The choir practices on Wednesday nights starting after Labor Day. We also need instrumentalists to help out with the 5:00 pm and 10:00 am liturgies. Drop by the church on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 pm. CELEBRATION CHOIR - Come young and not so young who love God and enjoy praising Him with music and song. The Celebration Choir is in need of new vocalist and instrumentalist members. Practice is on Thursdays at 7:00 pm in the church. Come and be part of this special ministry for Our Lord.
