This Sunday we begin another year of Faith Formation for our parish family. I would like to thank all those who are involved in the Faith Formation Program for our parish. I am grateful to Ms. Tracy Caezza, our Faith Formation Coordinator and the volunteer catechists who work so hard to ensure that our young people are trained in the practice of our faith. I would like to thank all parents who work to ensure that our young people attend all sessions of this very important program.

As your pastor, I strongly believe that the best way to train the next generation of disciples is weekly Mass attendance and participation in our faith formation program. I would like to invite all families to recommit themselves to training the young people in our parish. Please realize that this has to be a priority in your family’s life. May our Lord bless all involved in the faith formation program as we begin another year!

I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to the Diocesan Hope Appeal this year. It is extremely important that we support this important fund raising appeal in our diocese. Let us continue to support by generous donation and prayer the Hope Appeal in the Diocese of Syracuse.

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
FATHER JIM
