Ramblings

from Fr. Michael

Greetings and peace to everyone. As always, I hope

and pray that you are all doing well.

I had many of our winter parishioners tell me last weekend that they were leaving

us this past week. Some others informed me that they will be with us until the

end of April. I want to thank everyone for your help and support during your time

among us. When I appealed for financial assistance some weeks ago, quite a

number of you came forward to help. Thank you for your generosity. We are

truly grateful.

I would like to tell you a funny story! On my day off, I often go to one of my

favorite restaurants for breakfast—The Village Café in Siesta Village. I usually

bring Oscar, My Shiz Tzu and he is happy to sit quietly under the table while

I eat. I thought that all of the staff at the restaurant knew Oscar by now but one of

the owners told me last week that one staff member thought that my name was

Oscar!!! I didn’t know what to think!! So here, Oscar is known and I am not!!

What’s wrong with this picture?? LOL!! I still laugh when I think about it!

Several of you have spoken with me about the condition of our church grounds.

We ourselves have noticed a serious deterioration around the grounds in recent

months. We are concerned about this and we are addressing the issue with our

landscaping company. This memo is intended to keep everyone informed.

Wishing everyone a blessed week,

Fr. Michael
