Monday-Friday—7:30 am Saturday—3:30-4:15 pm

to schedule an appointment.

Historically January has been a

month when the Church invites us to

focus on vocations to the priest-

hood and the religious life. Maybe

that’s because January is the

month when the priest shortage is

experienced most intensely –

especially in Minnesota. Many

Minnesotan priests like to, or need

to, take time off in January to spiritually and physically

recharge after the busy Advent and Christmas seasons.

I am contributing to the January priest shortage this year. I am

gone and leading a pilgrimage to Rome and Southern Italy.

It was a commitment I made with my previous parish before I

knew I would be reassigned. You can be sure that I will be

praying for you all at many of the sacred sites. Maybe at the

gelato stands and pizza shops too. Sacred prayer, pizza, and

gelato – those are the sort of things my battery needs to re-

charge.

Arrivederci – a presto!

F A M I L I E S

There is a rosary prayed every Tuesday at 6:30 PM in the Cry Room, led by the Knights of Columbus. All are

welcome. The Knights are always open to members! Find information at kc9139.mnknights.org.
