 Thirty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time

November 13, 2022

Fr. Jim's Jots

Greetings!!

It is sad to inform you that Roger Pryor, our maintenance person for over 30 years, has retired.  Roger is a former member of the now closed St. Joseph Parish and Bishop Van de Vyver School.  Roger has become a good friend and I have enjoyed our many conversations about life, family and the Church.  Roger would often ask about my "Mumma".  I will miss our talks and how Roger would help me learn about St. Joseph Parish and Van de Vyver School.  His stories are full of great memories and love for his Mother and his church and school communities.  Roger was also very generous with his time and took great pride in keeping our Church looking great.

Special thanks for all who have helped with our special clean-up day yesterday.  I am so thankful for all who helped our Parish look clean and beautiful for our Centennial Kickoff Celebration.

Special thanks to Sister Anns, Melinda Mitchell, Mary Odindo, Joshuah Pursley and Helena Nelson and ALL who have helped in any way with gift cards and food items for our Thanksgiving baskets.

A reminder:  Please arrive next Sunday, November 20th, for our Centennial Mass at 9 a.m.  Please arrive early, we want our parishioners to get a seat.

+ Fr. Jim Arsenault, Pastor
