Faith, Hope & Courage: Beginnings
-
This week we celebrate the Feast of the Assumption of Mary. Just as the Assumption is both an ending and a new beginning, we are closing the door on previous plans we may have had and opening a new door on a new plan we craft together through Faith, Hope & Courage. Over the next few weeks, we will take this opportunity to evaluate where we are as a parish family, make adjustments if needed to ensure the overall health of the parish and responsibly plan together for continued ministry and outreach effectively.
This weekend, all those attending Mass in person will receive a special parish update which gives a snapshot review of where our parish stands year over year. For those joining us virtually, click here to download the update. Father Anastasia has also prepared a special video message addressing the update which can be viewed here.
“All are invited to please review the information and take time to prayerfully consider how you and your family can support our parish family,” Father Anastasia stated, “and we also want to know how your parish family can support you.” The back of our commitment card has a place to include any prayer intentions you wish to share and request contact if needed for your family. Our parish leadership is committed to responding to all requests within the next two weeks.
Your personalized card is included in the mailing from Bishop Parkes. Cards are also available at Mass and an e-commitment option is available at www.StMat.org. All parishioners are asked to complete a commitment card today or in the next couple of weeks and:- Bring the card to Mass next weekend
- Mail it to the church using the pre-addressed envelope provided
- Or visit our parish website at www.StMat.org and complete an electronic commitment card.
