Greetings in Christ, all! We are getting really close here to our time of transition. We will be away while our parish is rebuilt for anywhere from 8-10 months, depending on how it all goes. I’m so very excited about it all and I can’t wait until we are moved in to our new spiritual […]

Okay! So I’m continuing my series on the private prayers the priest prays at Mass. I’m sending this out before I go away for retreat, which means I won’t be able to offer any current events in this one. Let’s get right after it… Last time we left off, we were at the point in […]

Dave has achieved the mythical “Senior Priest Status” in our diocese and I invited him to move into the rectory at St. Mark’s, where […]

Greetings in Christ! This handout is to walk us through an update on our massive Church Renovation Project. We’ll start with a review. In 2017, the Diocese of Lansing convened the Witness to Hope campaign in order to raise some much needed funds for the great work of their ministry. Holy Family and about 11 […]
