NO Musings for First & Second Sundays of Advent
Due to Fr. Doug being away on holidays this week, there will no musings for this week or next. Fr. Doug has, however, left two former annoucements below as reminders.
Holidays – I am now on holidays and will be returning to the Office to the Parish on Thursday, December 5, will celebrate the daily liturgy on Friday, December 6 and will also be in the office that day. A huge word of thanks to the Lay Presiders who will lead daily Liturgies of the Word with Communion during my absence. A huge word of thanks also to Fr. April who will celebrate with you in my absence.
Four back pews temporarily unavailable – Please be aware that the four raised pews at the back of the church beside the baptismal font have been pushed together to make room for our Hamper Project boxes and will be unavailable for seating until after the completion of our Hamper Project. Previously the Hamper Project was located in the Welcome Area. Last year because of funerals, meetings, and gatherings, we were constantly moving the many boxes. This was achieved with the help of Hanook (full time) and others. This year Lance is part time. The Welcome Area is booked more heavily than last year, so the Hamper Project will now be located inside the church. When the Project is complete, the pews will be returned to their original places. This Project is very important as it helps so many families in need at Christmas, so we really appreciate your understanding and cooperation with this temporary seating adjustment. |
