Brothers and Sisters,
I found out that the Society of Our Lady of the Most
Holy Trinity (SOLT) will not be coming this season.
SOLT is the community that Fr. Vince and the sisters
are from who come to work with the migrant workers.
Fr. Vince was unable to come this year and they had
difficulty finding another priest to come and minister
to the migrants. The superior did tell me that they do
plan to come next year.
This means that we will not be having a Mass in
Spanish on Sunday evenings. Nor will the bishop be
coming to celebrate first Communion and
Confirmation for those that need those sacraments.
I do not want to leave the people high and dry so we
will have a meeting to discuss how we can still
minister to them. As of the writing of this article the
meeting date and time has not been set. If you are
interested in coming to the meeting, listen to the
announcements or contact Dina Moyer or Sandy
Rodewald.
In Christ,
Fr. Dan

Stewardship Note
The crowd in today’s Gospel demanded a sign
of Jesus and wanted to know what “work” He
did to inspire their faith. May our faithful
stewardship be a sign to others that we, like the
Ephesians in the second reading, have laid
aside our former way of life and acquired a
“fresh, spiritual way of thinking” in Christ.
