A Message to Parishioners

August 19, 2020

Dear Parishioner,

Pat Draper, the Religious Formation Director for our parish, has decided to retire. Pat has been a faithful and dedicated servant of the Lord in this ministry to our children and to our parish. She has been instrumental in the faith formation of generations of our parishioners for the past 42 years. She was formally recognized by the diocese for her years of service when she was honored with the Lumen Gentium Award in 2017.

Pat is a longtime parishioner of our parish, a member of the music ministry and she will continue to be present and involved in the life of our parish. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Pat for her years of service and congratulate her on her well-deserved retirement!

I would also like to announce that Regina Bamford, our Coordinator of Grade 1-5, will be assuming Pat's responsibilities. Regina will now oversee our parish's faith formation at the elementary level including preparation for First Reconciliation and First Eucharist, in addition to the administrative duties she already holds.

Please keep Pat and Regina in your prayers as they begin these new journeys in their lives.

God Bless!
Father Joe
